It tugged at you heart
Turned you cold
From the start
But now it turned you old
You lie there dying
As I hold you hand
Steadily crying
Moving my hand through the sand
Hoping it will relieve
This stress
Hoping you will believe
What I press
Against your heart
You lie there in pain
From the start
You thought I was insane
But I write
Because of you
The whole time I was right
And true
As you pass away
Knowing that you were lost
Hard to live another day
As you were tossed
Into the lake
Of fire
Were you are to bake
Down to the wire
Insects crawl on your skin
Flames singe your hairs
You were wrong again
Nobody's cares
About what you accomplished
In this life
Now you are banished
From eternal sleep to eternal strife
What happened on Earth
Now you burn
Ever since your birth
I guess you will never learn
That this temptation
Has caused you to lose your way
Across the nation
You won't live to see the light of another day
