04. GREETINGS FROM THE GROUND

When the lights went out, when the blood ran cold, My soul then left this world and fell down the pit fast. Passing through the flames, Hell, just like I was told, Through every circle right down to the last.

The smell of gasoline, a flame that stands out in the dark, The smoke and then the grin... His teeth bright as a white sun, the madness in his eyes, The Devil smiles. Horns up, just like you would expect, Music like it’s the end of all days!

And then the blaze and the crows, and the whores Hooking up in a pit of hellish fire, Just like a giant party laid out just for me. The wretched souls greeting me to the end of a crazy fucking joyride, Now, let’s just grab a drink, that’s the Devil’s way.

You’ll die one day just like all before you. You will fade away with all you knew, Don’t lose track of what is good and what is true.
I will never regret this life, I won’t feel guilty for all that I believed. There’s no Heaven higher than me, There is no Hell that can hold me!
After the blaze and the crows, and the whores Hooking up in the pit of hellish fire, There’s no more giant party laid out just for me. The wretched souls run away at the sound of Hell freezing over, Now, let’s just grab a drink, it’s just the Devil and me.

Hit first, talk last, that is the way to go, Return every blow!
I will not cave, I’m already dead anyway, Just like we are from the first day, I will not pray like a liar. I won’t be saved by whoever put me in this fire, I’d rather sell my soul and live, that’s the Devil’s way.

You’ll die one day just like all before you. You will fade away with all you knew, Don’t lose track of what is good and what is true.

I held my own and proved myself, Still have something to live for. This grave will not hold me down, Let’s strike a deal and leave this place!
Watch me rise up from the dead, And go party with my friends! I’ll bring the blaze and the crows, and the whores Hooking up in the pit of hellish fire, Just like a farewell party laid out just for me.

I know I’ll be back, I’ll spend this life Knowing what awaits for me on the other side. It won’t stop me, I will enjoy each day Until the end, that’s the Devil’s way.

You’ll die one day just like all before you. You will fade away with all you knew, Don’t lose track of what is good and what is true.
