#HELLISHERE

The gallows await me
With pill and needle
The demon in my blood
Purest form of evil

The crows are chanting my name
To feed the vermin, Carrion King
I have died a thousand times
Crown me The Suffering King

If this is my downfall
It will be my dissection
The voice of damnation
If I’m to rise again
It will be my destruction
Drowning in salvation

WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME

WHEN HELL IS HERE?

I prick my skin again
To love my demon
And show it attention
And I will feed it once more

I’m a slave to my vices
I’ve become the great self condemner
The poison in my own skin
Bitter blood and grim demeanor

If this is my downfall
It will be my dissection
The voice of damnation
If I’m to rise again
It will be my destruction
Drowning in salvation

WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME

WHEN HELL IS HERE?

I never fail to surprise myself
To walk alone in my depravity
Is it bad fucking luck or self pity
That forces me down this road to Hell?

If this is my downfall
It will be my dissection
The voice of damnation
If I’m to rise again
It will be my destruction
Drowning in salvation

WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME?
WHO WILL WALK WITH ME

WHEN HELL IS HERE?
