The Offspring - Demons

The Offspring - Demons, from their album "The Offspring"

Lyrics -

Clouds pass over the moon
Like an eye that shows impending doom
Tension in this misty air
Souls pass into the room
Drawn in by a lost memory
You will join them in the moonlight

You are my offering
Your soul transcends
The centuries of pain
Your misery in life
Is your ecstasy in death

Time passes like the wind
As we race to beat days dusky grin
Mornings just a moment away
Your body glistens in candlelight
As we all look on in fiendish delight
The ritual is just beginning

Come fulfill the prophecy
With our demons of debauchery
As virgins and spectress sing
This madness will never cease

In the dead of night
You will follow
In the footsteps of many others
Who have come before
I will show you the altar
Your aztec eyes, egyptian hair
Your beauty bestoved upon my lair
Ive loved you before, in other lives
But youve never ment as much to me
Never meant as much to me as now

In this night of sacrafice
Where blood is spilt
That will never spill again
But in your linen robes
We want you now
We want you now
You could never ask for more than that

You are my offering
Your soul transcends
The centuries of pain
Your misery in life
Is your ecstasy in
Come fulfill the prophecy
With our demons of debauchery
This madness will never cease

This is actually one of the best guitar riffs in history IMO. Hidden away in this debut album.

The Offspring is so amazing... Thanks for upload SadisticPancake!!

@beheaded360 hell yeah.

[beheaded360]

@bedtimefordemocracy Same here. I got a 1995 reissue for Christmas but if I could get an 89 copy, or Baghdad that would be wicked.

@stingme88x not really underground - this was in CD stores like camelot in '95 when they came out with their gold album 'smash', which is another great album. you might here some underground stuff on the iRadio station hussieskunk

[bedtimefordemocracy]

@beheaded360 i've seen it twice used in the past few years, both times i've bought it but that's about the only time i've run across. Would love a 1st press LP of the s/t

@Melvin0082 dexter!!!!!!!!!

[bedtimefordemocracy]

@hedlik they were undoubtedly inspired by TSOL- the sound is identical and the influence is so blatantly obvious, which i think is awesome. I love both TSOL and the offspring. to question if offspring was inspired by TSOL is silly

Fenomenal someday somehow

[Melvin0082]

who 's singing

[beheaded360]

@stingme88x Got two copies of this album.... Took me 6 months to get em.

[stingme88x]

@beheaded360 i kinda agree.. but at the same time I'm kinda jealous i want this to remain underground.. if you're a cool person you'll eventually find it (;
