[Intro]
Everlasting fire, does that make God unfair? Not at all
Everlasting fire, the dead were judged according to their works
Everlasting fire, go forth and look upon the light
Everlasting fire
[Verse 1: Billy Obey]
Try to call for help but all you dialed is static
The goddamned, the exiled and outcasted
My brain full of what's without a doubt maggots
From all these rhymes derived out the mouth of madness
Now stand, kneel before me
Author of the tragic portrait of a man that lives within this story
The goddamned I am, not worth the shit on your shoe
It's true, the goddamned are me and you
Technically speaking know death my main desire
It's just the way my brain is wired
I see snuff films and get inspired
Now a human sacrifice part of the rider, it's hard to decipher
Remember the reason why it's not to be me never
You get dismembered when alive 'cause the meat tastes better
In any other way I will not stand for it
It's the A-X-E bring in the goddamned chorus
[Chorus]
E-everlasting fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, the goddamned
E-everlasting fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, the goddamned
[Bridge]
Listen to me my son, there's another path you can choose, you do not have to do this. You do not have to inflict harm, it is not godly please. There's such a reason you don't have to do this, no!
[Verse 2: Lee Carver]
Hold your heavenly father fugitive
Teeth black, axe crimson, inverted crucifix
Burned into the center of my forehead with the symmetry
Sacrificing lives sacrilegiously
I'm praying every night that the angels come and visit me
Split 'em down the middle in a live nativity
Goddamned birthed in a remote land
With hooves instead of hands slaughtering of the lambs
Existing in a realm sunlight's never touched
The spawn of an inferno and the son of a succubus
If you're one of us no halo no harp
Heartstrings plead as you bleed in the dark
The beast and his mark evil throughout the aeons
Live in the flesh, hold hands for the séance
This entity has selected you
To do the bidding of the Alla Xul Elu
[Chorus]
E-everlasting fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, the goddamned
E-everlasting fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, the goddamned
[Verse 3: Joe Black]
I've broken some holy laws you can't forgive, Father
Put out blunts on my palms and called it stigmata
Welcome to the church, you'll be baptized tonight
The sacrifice brought back to life as an acolyte
Below the surface in the cold dark far beneath
Pray with dark priests with no hearts and sharp teeth
Pluck a tongue off the pile, offer it to Belial
Godless and vile, vomit bile on the Bible
There's no soul in me even though I don't believe
Hung myself with a rosary and I hoped that he would notice me
(Down here) The preacher prayed for me to change my ways
I'd rather hang in vain from snakes like chains
Tell the reverend I'm the devil in flesh
Made a hell or heaven road or go back to Mendes
Just another Satan created by God's hands
Forever in flames we are (The Goddamned)
[Chorus]
E-everlasting fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, the goddamned
E-everlasting fire
Fire, fire, fire
Fire, the goddamned
[Outro]
Watch you die again. You gotta make a fire, shit! Fucking die forever
