Death Angel - 04 - Barren Lands (Demo)

Death Angel formed in 1982 under the name Dark Theory and changed their name that same year to Death Angel. They released this demo in 1983 and a follow up in 1985 called Kill as One. It was not until 1987 that the band would finally enter the studio and record their first album The Ultraviolence. They would break up in 1991 and reform in 2001. They have released a steady stream of albums ever since.

Lyrics:

I walk in a dream
I'm trying to shout or scream
he's coming
a figure in black
will he help me
or will he attacK?

I'm trapped within my mind
release me from this pain
Oh, it kills me
feels like the fires of hell

A reaper reaching for me
Can I escape and be free?

Barren lands
Fires burning
Barren lands
Goblins churning

I wake up
open my eyes
I'm happy
as I realize
I'm burning in this barren land
The fire does not ? in the sky

I'm trapped within my mind
release me from this pain
Oh, it kills me
feels like the fires of hell

Yeah
Yeah
aaaah

Yeah
Yeah
aaaah

Yeah
Yeah
aaaah

Yeah
mama I'm ?

Barren lands
Fires burning
Barren lands
Goblins churning

Barren lands
Barren lands
