The Melody of Misery
These eternal thoughts Got me locked inside this infernal box
Caught within the devil’s jaws It’s been so long, it seems as though I forgot
The difference between who’s my enemy vs. who’s not
Couple screws gone
I’d make a deal with God but my soul’s bought
Now I’m trapped in this endless cycle of sin and pain
No hope, no escape, no mercy, no gain
Just a puppet on a string, dancing to the tune of fate
A slave to my own choices, a victim of my own hate
I search the Scriptures for a sign of grace
But all I see is condemnation and disgrace
I see the visions of the witches, telling me my doom
But all I hear is silence, filling up the room
Surrounded by misfortune and gloom
Its time I atone, its set in stone I’m never going home
