Weak are ripped and torn away
Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hipnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay
With Fill 1
[E5]Smashing through the boundrys, [C5]lunacy has found me
Cannot stop t[F5]he [F5]bat[F#/Eb]tery
Riff 3
With Fill 1
[E5]Pounding out agression, [C5]turned into obsession
Cannot stop t[F5]he [F5]bat[F#/Eb]tery
Riff 3 (first 2 bars)
[E5]Cannot kill the [B5]family, [G5]battery has [F#/Eb]grounded me
Riff 3 (first 3 bars)|
|
Bb5 F5 E5 | Play this several
Bat-ter-y | times and then back to the next verse
Outro:
Repeat lots Last time

verses
Crushing all decievers, mashing non-believers
Never ending potency
Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity
Chorus
Circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
We create the battery
Chorus
