Eternal Sentence

Angels from above
In heaven they dwell
Some were casted down 
From the sky they fell 
They were thrown out of the light
And casted into the dark 
They had their wings removed 
And their foreheads marked
They were given a kingdom
In which they could roam
Keys to the gate 
And a king of there own
Out of the darkness 
Came a warm flickering glow 
A place we call Hell 
A hot fiery hole
A fire so hot 
It cant be fathomed by man
Its filled with the screams of torture
From the wicked and damned 
Up from the flames
A terrible smell arose
A smell so bad 
It chokes out your soul
I looked towards heaven
And I cried out for God 
To send down an angel
And lift me from the fog
Then suddenly
Everything seemed to stop
Except the amber's of the coals
That still crackled and popped
Then i heard laughter 
That came from everywhere
In loud screeching voice I heard
God ain't here
Then it dawned on me 
That very instant 
That Id been dammed
And Hell was my sentence!
