Lake of Fire

Too late to turn back...sang a symphony of sorrow
Pay for your sins...And the sentence is eternal
Went through a tunnel...like funnel cloud terror
Saw your entire life played on dirty cracked mirrors
Can't turn around...No your home is straight ahead
No it's not a nightmare that left you bleeding in your bed
Cuts and slashes to your heart, mind, and soul
This journey into darkness you have to do alone
You had a million chances to come into the light
Gods angels begged you PLEASE!!!
But those demons left you blind
They left you deaf and dumb...mindless and numb
Your only thought was more...that was your only rule of thumb
You let the devil play you...He told you "You were his ace"
Now you see you're just a joker as he's laughing in your face
A sign post reads...LAKE OF FIRE JUST AHEAD
Now your sobbing turns to screaming
Your fear turns into madness
You hear laughter all around you...giggles of gruesome gladness
Now you're on a roller coaster with one hundred other fools
Lower learning mindless victims and low life living imbred ghouls
Now the cart it rocks and rolls...soon it will go off the tracks
The fire is getting closer...demons clawing up your back
You scream unholy anguish as you fall into the fire
Now the devil drools and grins his devil smile
WELCOME HOME FOOLISH SON TO THE BURNING LAKE OF FIRE
