5. City Beneath the Surface (5:49)
Hi, welcome to Hell
You are all here
For this is where you must dwell
Sinners and cheats
Sit here with Satan
And have all your spirits meet
Oh, city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood?
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Die, we all must die
How will you face it
When you bend to your knees and cry?
Burn, like witches burn
When will you sinners believe
That it's your time to learn?
Oh, city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood?
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Oh, city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood?
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Punished for the way that you lived
Raping and stealing, but never one thought to give
Here forever, not a trail or a trace
Total illusions of tales of the unholy place
You are all here
For this is where you must dwell
Sinners and cheats
Sit here with Satan
And have all your spirits meet
Oh, city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood?
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Die, we all must die
How will you face it
When you bend to your knees and cry?
Burn, like witches burn
When will you sinners believe
That it's your time to learn?
Oh, city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood?
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Oh, city beneath the surface above
How you survive on evil and blood?
You breathers in this space
You never can leave this place
Punished for the way that you lived
Raping and stealing, but never one thought to give
Here forever, not a trail or a trace
Total illusions of tales of the unholy place
