The sadness in their eyes before they betray thee
I walk in the dark, along the heavy wall
I see them always stronger, better arms, never to fall
Here I am alone
Shall I walk on to the dead-end?
To die or to pretend
Then it's thyself who forgives thee
Out of you will have passed all capacity
To be hunted, nothing more
Pain in the pounding sore
In the steep emptiness of the gorge
In the way quieter than a whisper forge
Annihilation's not that difficult
Just open the wound and fill it with salt
Sun gone down, the last light failing
Afterglow from the last sunlight faded
They survive to enslave thee again
We do not have a God but a hell
A dark passage leading to nowhere and on
Dark never-ending, suddenly all gone
Now there's nothing more to see
The bell tolls for thee
The fear was made of what I had been through
The apprehension was for the evil I would do
In the sack is the essence of all
Dead earth and the dead stalks of fall
They're from the flowers and their rotten blooms
The smell that is death in the sinful gloom
Thou wilt wrap this sack around thy head
Inhalest deeply, and smell the odor of death
Faint, muted, dry and far away
We are all in the same cauldron left to stay
There's a scream that will never die
It will go forever
It will always cry
Sun gone down, the last light failing
Afterglow from the last sunlight faded
They survive to enslave thee again
We do not have a God but a hell
A dark passage leading to nowhere and on
Dark never-ending, suddenly all gone
Now there's nothing more to see
The bell tolls for thee
In the steep emptiness of the gorge
In the way quieter than a whisper forge
Annihilation's not that difficult
Just open the wound and fill it with salt
Hated injustice, hated cruelty
Lay in my rage that blind my mind
That was given to me because I never asked for it
I was not the aim but I got hit
Time is shortening, there's one direction to go
No, no, please no, no!
Just save me from this eternal hell
Free me from the tolling bell!
Faint, muted, dry and far away
We are all in the same cauldron left to stay
There's a scream that will never die
It will go forever
It will always cry
Sun gone down, the last light failing
Afterglow from the last sunlight faded
They survive to enslave thee again
We do not have a God but a hell
A dark passage leading to nowhere and on
Dark never-ending, suddenly all gone
Now there's nothing more to see
The bell tolls for thee
In the shadow at the end we do not see The sadness in their eyes before they betray thee I walk in the dark, along the heavy wall I see them always stronger, better arms, never to fall Here I am alone Shall I walk on to the dead-end? To die or to pretend Then it's thyself who forgives thee Out of you will have passed all capacity To be hunted, nothing more Pain in the pounding sore In the steep emptiness of the gorge In the way quieter than a whisper forge Annihilation's not that difficult Just open the wound and fill it with salt Sun gone down, the last light failing Afterglow from the last sunlight faded They survive to enslave thee again We do not have a God but a hell A dark passage leading to nowhere and on Dark never-ending, suddenly all gone Now there's nothing more to see The bell tolls for thee The fear was made of what I had been through The apprehension was for the evil I would do In the sack is the essence of all Dead earth and the dead stalks of fall They're from the flowers and their rotten blooms The smell that is death in the sinful gloom Thou wilt wrap this sack around thy head Inhalest deeply, and smell the odor of death Faint, muted, dry and far away We are all in the same cauldron left to stay There's a scream that will never die It will go forever It will always cry Sun gone down, the last light failing Afterglow from the last sunlight faded They survive to enslave thee again We do not have a God but a hell A dark passage leading to nowhere and on Dark never-ending, suddenly all gone Now there's nothing more to see The bell tolls for thee In the steep emptiness of the gorge In the way quieter than a whisper forge Annihilation's not that difficult Just open the wound and fill it with salt Hated injustice, hated cruelty Lay in my rage that blind my mind That was given to me because I never asked for it I was not the aim but I got hit Time is shortening, there's one direction to go No, no, please no, no!
