Final Six
Slayer Lyrics

Surrender your cloth and collar priest
Priests should not involve themselves in war, so there's no reason to keep wearing their religious attire.

There's no need for your beliefs in war
During war, faith should be put aside for practical reasons.

This is a place for heathens
War is a place where any notions of morality often become irrelevant and barbaric behavior is expected.

Into that darkness fires illuminate
Amidst the chaos and violence of war, burning buildings and explosions can be seen glowing in the darkness.

Grotesquely swollen by the heat
The heat of flames and explosions has caused a dead body to swell up in an unpleasant way.

A half-burned corpse hanging naked
A dead person has been partially consumed by fire and is now hanging lifelessly.

A stream is poisoned by the dead
Dead bodies in the water have made it undrinkable and potentially toxic.

In the ghostly light, debris of war
The aftermath of a battle is dark and eerie, with smoke and dust covering everything, and remnants of the fight visible in the gloom.

Lead us to the brink of extinction
Humanity is on the edge of self-destruction due to its actions, and is in dire need of guidance.

The time has come for you now to finish it
It's now up to someone to bring an end to the cycle of violence that humanity is trapped in.

What has man become a funeral pyre
Humanity is consuming itself in a never-ending cycle of death and destruction.

Now that judgment's near, prepare to die
A reckoning is coming, and humans will be held accountable for their actions.

Need to suffer, lust for power
The human desire for power has caused countless suffering for others.

Mindless hunger never win
The insatiable hunger for power and destruction is a fool's errand that can never truly be won.

Final six is here, the cycle ends
This is the final warning that humanity is on the brink of annihilation, and something needs to be done to stop the cycle of violence.

I have come for you, my child
An ominous figure has arrived to deliver punishment to humans for their actions.

And the gift I bring is murder
The punishment being brought against humans is death.

Sumerian death in eastern winds
A reference to the ancient Sumerian god associated with death, symbolizing the idea that death is now on the horizon.

Face the father of your terror
Humans must confront the source of their fear - death - and deal with it.

Godless warheads wait to breathe
Weapons without morality or religious constraints are about to be used in a war.

Set their sights on history
The war will have a significant impact on human history, defining the events that follow.

Distant silhouettes of the dead
Human corpses can be seen in the distance.

Blacken face screams through the ashes
The faces of the dead are blackened from the ashes, with a frozen expression of terror and pain.

Mankind owes his pain to hell
Humans have created their own suffering through their actions and decisions.

As he brings the end upon himself
Humans are responsible for their own demise and are the architects of their own destruction.

Arms rising from the ashes
The dead are reaching out from the ashes, emphasizing the destruction and chaos of the war.

In the ghastly light of human flares
The only light coming amid the dark destruction of war is from human-made flares, emphasizing humanity's role in the violence.

Berith soldiers capture souls
Soulless soldiers are responsible for the atrocities and violence of the war.

Shadows of human sacrifice
The death and destruction of the war represent a sacrifice of human life and morality.

The return of everything that's dead
The war will result in the return of the dead to the earth.

A cryptic promise from the heavens
There is an unknown and mysterious message from the divine regarding the war and the destruction it brings.

Dead flowers for a faceless dead
Flowers are placed on the corpses of those killed in the war, who remain unidentified and unknown.

A city engulfed by the smell of death
The war has caused widespread death and destruction, with the city stinking of blood and decay.

Bodies piled beneath the mist
Multiple dead bodies can be seen stacked up and obscured by fog, indicating the sheer amount of death and destruction caused by the war.

Walking dead among the living
Those who survived the war are traumatized and must try to live in a world of death and destruction.

The world will bleed while horseman ride
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse will come and bring further destruction and death to the world.

Now that God has wept for Judas
Recognizing that even God has wept for the actions of humanity in causing destruction and pain.

Days are numbered, find your grave
Humanity is running out of time, and must prepare for its own end.

Forever trying to escape to hell
Humans are caught in a cycle of destruction and death, desperately seeking a way out, but only find themselves descending further into chaos.
