I Am Hell (Sonata in C#) Lyrics
I am death
Arms held outstretched
I am hell
Born this mortal shell
I am wrath
Take this bloodbath
God sent me to kill youWhat started out as wonder
The smell of scorched earth
It filled me with a sense of bliss
Inside my head the noises show they thundered
With cracking and hiss
One match
Killed the anguish
One act
Left me fulfilled
Destruction now the only catalyst
To save this soul
From these thoughtless killsWhere once a heart was beating
Nothing but embers glow
Our love it serves as kindling
To stoke this flames infernoI am hell to thee
Down here all shall suffer with me
Die purified
Rise the ashes to the skyObsession born of young lust
Incomprehensible the feelings as they come to pass
But now betrayal slowly turns to bloodlust
Through sulphur and gasIgnite this crime of passion
Loves pyre is set a blaze
The charred remains of all
Compassion was the spark that lit
Your immolationWhere once a heart was beating
Nothing but embers glow
Our love it serves as kindling
To stoke this flames infernoI am hell to thee
Down here all shall suffer with me
Die purified
Rise the ashes to the skySo burn
I'll burn it down
I'll burn you down
So you'll never love again (again)[Lead Flynn/Demmel, Flynn]Where once a heart was beating
Nothing but embers glow
Our love it serves as kindling
To stoke this flames infernoI am hell to thee
Down here all shall suffer with me
Die purified
In this the ashes of your immolationI am Hell
In the ashes of your immolation
