Silent Scream (Slayer Cover) Lyrics
Nightmare, the persecution
A child's dream of death.
Torment, ill forgotten
A soul that will never rest.
Guidance, it means nothing
In a world of brutal time.
Electric, circus, wild,
Deep in the infants mind.
Silent Scream
Bury the unwanted child.
Beaten and torn
Sacrifice the unborn.
Shattered, another child
Bearer of no name.
Restrained, insane games
Suffer the children condemned.
Scattered, remnants of life,
Murder a time to die.
Pain, sufferaged toyed,
Life's little fragments destroyed.
Silent Scream
Crucify the bastard son.
Beaten and torn
Sanctify lives of scorn.
Life preordained
Humanity maintained.
Extraction termination
Pain's agonizing stain.
Embryonic death,
Embedded in your brain.
Suffocation, strangulation,
Death is fucking you insane.
Nightmare, the persecution
A child's dream of death.
Torment, ill forgotten
A soul that will never rest.
Innocence withdrawn in fear.
Fires burning can you hear
Cries in the night.
A child's dream of death.
A soul that will never rest.
In a world of brutal time.
Deep in the infants mind.
Bury the unwanted child.
Beaten and torn
Sacrifice the unborn.
Bearer of no name.
Suffer the children condemned.
Murder a time to die.
Life's little fragments destroyed.
Crucify the bastard son.
Beaten and torn
Sanctify lives of scorn.
Humanity maintained.
Extraction termination
Pain's agonizing stain.
Embedded in your brain.
Suffocation, strangulation,
Death is fucking you insane.
A child's dream of death.
A soul that will never rest.
Innocence withdrawn in fear.
Fires burning can you hear
Cries in the night.

slayer fucking kicks ass. and so do CoB but i havnt heard it. i bet its just as good as the original
This cover really kicks ass. Children of Bodom made this cover shound nearly like their own song, and I was mistaken into thinking it too. I have heard both Silent Screams, and before I looked it up on the internet, I didnt realise that it was a Slayer Cover. CoB did a fantastic job with this cover. Its comparable to Johnny Cash's cover of NIN's "Hurt" where the cover song sounds like a whole new song.
I loved Slayers version. I want to listen to Children of Bodom's version but i can't seem to find it :(
