Fire and Brimstone
I smell the soot and brimstone
I never really thought
that I'd be so alone
But the cracks in the ground
Are radiating hellfire
And my soul is quaking
For the futile desire
My friends and family go limp
And as I start to fade
I feel my chest sink deep enough
To reach my own grave
As I choke on the air
I feel the sickness calling
The devil's waiting for me
And I am slowly dying
Surely if there's a god
He'd be forgiving right?
Or I wait in vein
To live through
This cursed night
The mortals fight
With moral plights
But the gods play player
And fuel the fire and brimstone
The sunbeams start to shoot
Right through the darkened clouds
And I can hear the trumpets playing
Loud and proud
As I stand there waiting
For some wish to come true
I realize that it's to late
For me to come home to you
Is this all that were meant for
Is this my biggest fear
To sit here and look back
On all my troubled years
When all those long nights
I thought that I was better off dead
Now that I am
I feel things were better left just said
Now that I feel the heat
And the rising temperature
As hell's angel descend
From the hellish atmosphere
The song of screams is humming
From a passed out homeless man
While creatures of horror
Rip into his soft flesh
Lord I'm so sorry,
For not being good you see
I did my every best to fit
Your every little need
I fulfilled my own desire
Yeah,
But I also did you good
By not being a jerk
And taking no as an answer
And now as the tides roll out
I'll take all the seeds
And I'll crush them out of pure hatred
And feed my jealousy
I can feel,
I can smell,
I can hear,
the fire and brimstone
I can feel,
I can smell,
I can hear,
the fire and brimstone
And if you wanna be like me
Then you can feel it too
I never really thought
that I'd be so alone
But the cracks in the ground
Are radiating hellfire
And my soul is quaking
For the futile desire
My friends and family go limp
And as I start to fade
I feel my chest sink deep enough
To reach my own grave
As I choke on the air
I feel the sickness calling
The devil's waiting for me
And I am slowly dying
Surely if there's a god
He'd be forgiving right?
Or I wait in vein
To live through
This cursed night
The mortals fight
With moral plights
But the gods play player
And fuel the fire and brimstone
The sunbeams start to shoot
Right through the darkened clouds
And I can hear the trumpets playing
Loud and proud
As I stand there waiting
For some wish to come true
I realize that it's to late
For me to come home to you
Is this all that were meant for
Is this my biggest fear
To sit here and look back
On all my troubled years
When all those long nights
I thought that I was better off dead
Now that I am
I feel things were better left just said
Now that I feel the heat
And the rising temperature
As hell's angel descend
From the hellish atmosphere
The song of screams is humming

And I'll crush them out of pure hatred
And feed my jealousy
I can feel,

I can hear,
the fire and brimstone
I can feel,
I can smell,
I can hear,
the fire and brimstone
And if you wanna be like me
Then you can feel it too
