Intro
God cursed my vile obscenity - and cast this wretched pox on me
Thus to annul my blasphemy - must i endure hell's purgatory
This plea i proffer unto thee - o mentor of my destiny
I beg thy blackened soul - to take this wretch within thy clemency
From barren realms of morbid fear - this foul tempestuous cross to bear
O satan i beseech thee to have mercy - mercy on my soul
Verse 1
Even as i speak marasmus eats my flesh as i resign myself
To suffer sinners sentence of eternal scorching flame
Wracked with pain i crawl away to find some stinking hole
To vainly pray for succour to my weary vanquished soul
Satan i bow to the devil
Satan i crawl to the devil
Verse 2
All at once through acrid smoke i peer, terror grips my heart
Mesmerised, i fawn before the evil prince of darkness
Wracked with pain i crawl away to find some stinking hole
To vainly pray for succour to my weary vanquished soul
Repeat bridge
Assuming shape of goatlike man the tempter stands before me
And speaking slowly, summons wretched sinners seeking sanctuary
"Your blasphemy will be undone the day you hail the darkest one"
Deus est morta - diabolo super omnia
Deus est morta - det nobis sua gaudia
Bridge 2
For selling my divinity a blackened angel i shall be
And never more must i endure
Hell's wrath - hell's fire - hell's curse - hell sent
Hell's toll - hell hole - hell raise - hell bent
Hell's gates - hell's woe - hell's wrath - hells end
Verse 3
Thus he annulled my blasphemy
And scoured the plague of plagues from me
Innocently i believed that i possessed immunity
Then bitter truth did dawn on me
That i must spend eternity
In hades (not in pennance) but in base servility
