Morbid Angel - Maze Of Torment Lyrics






Life betrayal - a warping rage
Evil ripping caverns through your mind
Immolation - in blood you've signed your soul away
Sickening life ends but the horror has just begun

Vultures moaning a funeral dirge
Walls await to cradle you and rip your soul apart
Incessant screams echoes through the maze
Insanity approaches - imminent demise

Maze of torment
Maze of torment
Maze of torment
Maze of death

Stricken from the holy book - deliverance to pain
Effigy of Jesus Christ burning in your mind
Voices cry out to bid you welcome
Locked within the dungeons of darkness - no escape!

Maze of torment
Maze of torment
Maze of torment
Maze of death

Passing through corridors embedded with scars
Of those who have gone before you and left their marks
Warning comes too late to save you now
Visions of suffering stab from the inside

You pray for death
Mourning does no good as you can only die once
Souls are being raped by the maze
Lost in these halls... endlessly

Maze of torment
Maze of torment
Maze of torment
Maze of death

    Maze of Torment (4:25)

    Life betrayal - a warping rage
    Evil ripping caverns through your mind
    Immolation - in blood you've signed your soul away
    Sickening life ends but the horror has just begun

    Vultures moaning a funeral dirge
    Walls await to cradle you and rip your soul apart
    Incessant screams echoes through the maze
    Insanity approaches - imminent demise

    Maze of torment...
    Maze of torment...
    Maze of torment...
    Maze of death

    Stricken from the holy book deliverance to pain
    Effigy of Jesus Christ burning in your mind
    Voices cry out to bid you welcome
    Locked within the dungeons of darkness - no escape!!

    Maze of torment...
    Maze of torment...
    Maze of torment...
    Maze of death

    (Solo: Azagthoth)

    Passing through corridors embedded with
    Scars of those who have gone before you
    And left their marks

    Warning comes to late to save you now
    Visions of suffering stab from the inside

    You pray for death
    Mourning does no good as you can only die once

    Souls are being raped by the maze
    Lost in these halls... endlessly

    (Solo: Brunelle)

    (Solo: Azagthoth)

    Maze of torment...
    Maze of torment...
    Maze of torment...
    Maze of death

    Sounds like angel of death

  4. J.... L....

    Anyone who DOESN'T like this is probably a little bit touched in the head 🤘

  5. K.... D....

    The line "thoroughly raped by the maze, endlessly" always reminds me of the original Hellraiser.

    K.... D....

    It's actually "souls are being raped by the maze"

  6. W.... T....

    Ahahahahah

  7. P.... L....

  8. F.... B....

    What I'm wondering is....
    What song came first Maze of Torment or Obituary's The End Complete?
    Does anybody know what I'm talking about?
    Hear anything interesting?

    F.... B....

    This album came out in 1989 and The End Complete came out in 1992. Ive seen both bands several times and actually got to see them on the same bill with Cannibal Corpse once in like 1995. Two of my favorites from way back. 🤘

    F.... B....

    @Johnny Chaos
    Yea I know that's when they came out. You're such a huge fan and you don't know what I'm talking about?

  16. L.... F....

    Does anyone have literary suggestions that reflect the themes and atmosphere of Death Metal, specially Morbid Angel's themes and atmosphere? It would be amazing to have a book talking about Mazes of Torment and other cosmically blasphemic things such as these.

    L.... F....

    try some H. P. Lovecraft

    L.... F....

    @Γιώργος Νομικός I was expecting something less obvious than Lovecraft.

  17. c.... ....

    Well i'm not in death metal a Friend of me made me hear about it centuries ago but i must Say this is a masterpiece all of the album

  18. N.... ....

    One of the few MA songs I can drum. Pete is an animal.

  19. M.... ....

    D.... C....

    Emblematic, nice word

  34. E.... L....

    obscene, brutal, dark and so extreme, old times from tampa florida ,legends of deth metal...

  35. 9.... ....

    If you're not listening to this at night while doing cocaine and heroin in a room without lights with only candles being present, you're doing it wrong.

  36. D.... G....

    Morbid Angel for Superbowl 2020 Halftime Show

    D.... G....

    It couldn't possibly be as satanic as the Lady Gaga one.

    D.... G....

    That would be my dream

  37. A.... S....

  40. M.... I....

    This is what turned me into Morbid!

  41. n.... 2....

    lethal death metal, way ahead of its time.

  42. L.... A....

    Troops of Doom riff

    L.... A....

    Lorenzo Araujo To me it sounds like the second riff in Mercyful Fate - Desecration of Souls

  43. S.... ....

    That opening riff and laugh at the beginning.

    S.... ....

    I always get goosebumps from hearing that laughter

  44. n.... d....

    I like death deicide canibal corpse anthrax

  45. A.... L....

    Maze of blast beats

  46. m.... ....

    This song reminds of when I really have to shit.

    m.... ....

    Holding in a huge shit after it goes through the maze inside your body is true torment.

  47. M.... ....

    I am in the maze now.....

  48. J.... P....

    The first few times I heard Morbid Angel I liked (Immortal Rites a lot), but I did not consider them to be the best of death metal or spectaculars. Now I think they are brutal, although there are bands that I like more. Ah, and by the way, bestial song.

  49. A.... S....

    One of the first songs I've learn to play on my guitar when I was only 15.

  50. M.... C....

    I came from your comment on Criminally Insane haha

  60. G.... O....

    Haven't heard this in a long while and for some funny reason, it's like hearing it for the first time again. Fuckin pure lethal! Must listen to some of their other earlier stuff again!

  61. S.... T....

  62. T.... M....

    T.... M....

    Lol I've gotta see that

    T.... M....

    Can you give us the link please?

    T.... M....

    Just type in the search bar "Jay Cutler Interception Machine"

    T.... M....

    BringTheWar1980 was this song in that video?

  63. J.... H....

    my tattoo on my upper right arm is inspired from the cover photo has a unique touch but few faces and style is same

    J.... H....

    John Hanson I've never played Doom, but there is level that has this painting clearly influenced by this album cover. I know Doom well enough that the soundtrack is influenced by bands such as Pantera, Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth.

  64. D.... W....

    I love playing the main riff on guitar.

    D.... W....

    Me too!

  65. T.... D....

  68. E.... M....

    too bad that david vincent doesnt sound like this anymore.

    E.... M....

    Georginsky2000 Holy shit I thought you were joking but he actually is doing country now

    E.... M....

    Are you referring to all the records he's done after Altars of Madness? I don't mind his vocals in Blessed are the Sick because he still uses those sinister demonic vocals as well as the more guttural vocals. But after hearing Where the Slime live, I'm not really keen on listening to the Domination record.

    E.... M....

    Nicolas Silva if you were able to create a masterpiece like altars of madness, you can be whoever tha fuck you want

    E.... M....

    He sounds fine now, peoples voices change in time.

    E.... M....

    He tried to sound like mike browning on this album, MA’s previous vocalist

  69. W.... ....

    i wanted to like it but saw it was at 666 :)

    desgraça total ! |m|

  85. n.... g....

    METAL ANTHEM

  86. D.... D....

    hooky substantial riffs, just the right amount of blasts, completely random solos, the usual inaudible bass and an average growler.
    Pretty good, but doesn't blow my mind
    PLEASE NOTE: I am not saying they're a bad band, i just don't like them heaps. 
    ALSO PLEASE NOTE: Probs for now stick with Obituary and Dethklok.

    D.... D....

    Just the very first album, everything from 1989's Realm of Chaos is golden. They became less ugly with time though, Realm of Chaos (1989) is their most "raw" Death Metal record. While the last one: Those Once Loyal (2005) is considered their best by most people. Such an amazing band with a consistant output of great songs and albums.

    D.... D....

    @Infyra OK then

    D.... D....

    nothing will compare to 80s early 90s metal

    D.... D....

    @Lyndon McArthur not even modern thrash bands like Sylosis?

    D.... D....

    you like Bolt Thrower?

  87. R.... R....

    This endures just as good then as to this day. Was on my old skate tapes. Some old napalm death, bolt thrower and carcass. New metal may be more brutal but no groove to it. Old suffocation is a good start too. Alters of madness!

    R.... R....

    Morbid angel, Carcass, Suffocation, and CC, just some of my bands' biggest influences, amazing bands!

    R.... R....

    Ryan Resavage Morbid Angel is much more brutal than any Metal band today.

    R.... R....

    bolt thrower is so legendary

  88. A.... B....

    im the only morbid angel fan in Kings School Gutersloh. the school denys the truth of metal.

  89. J.... J....

    Old Morbid Angel

    J.... J....

    Real Morbid Angel also!

  90. e.... ....

    I had this song as a ringtone

    e.... ....

    +emdeth it probably gave an old person a heart attack

    e.... ....

    Brutal.

  91. P.... T....

    Pete Sandoval rules \m/ :-)

    P.... T....

    As always

  92. J.... B....

    Maze of Death! Hardcore fukn deathmetal. Pre-90s'. I bought the cassette when it came out. 89' I think. I was 18-19. So blasphemous. I thought This is too evil! But so insane I love it! Saw them play in Montreal. 97' everyone in "The Pit" for Chapel of Ghouls! I listen to a lot of (REAL)hardcore punk. Grind,crust,stenchcore,doom.NOIZE!
