Hell's Invitation - Mind's Eye

My son, why won’t you see the light in heaven?

I rather rule in hell than to serve in heaven, father…

Your job’s to rescue me today

So don’t fill my head with empty thoughts

From where I am there’s no return

The power of your mighty words

Claiming my crown is made of thorns

Made to keep the evil out

I’m here to find out

If there’s more to life than death

Ironic how god slaps your face

And he will always be

Like a cockroach in your mouth

Laying eggs inside your brain

I will not make it, through the pearly gates

Carrying chains of doom

Hell’s invitation is burning out

The devil sends regards

Let me taste the apples again

Wouldn’t want to ruin your plan

Like I did the last time

So please release me

From these chains of doom

I felt the weight of that day

Thought I was not the only one

To cast the first stone in the crowd

A punishment for changing lanes

Nobody likes the way you talk

The way your X is held up tall

So rest in my arms

While you finish your last breath

Ironic how god slaps your face

And he will always be

Like a cockroach in your mouth

Laying eggs inside your brain

I will not make it, through the pearly gates

Carrying chains of doom

Hell’s invitation is burning out

The devil sends regards

Let me taste the apples again

Wouldn’t want to ruin your plan

Like I did the last time ha ha ha

So please release me

From these chains of…

Hell belongs to me

You can walk the clouds

Promises to keep

Before I claim my crown

Heaven is a trick

You can hardly wait

For the punch line is

Endless Emptiness

I will not make it, through the pearly gates

Carrying chains of doom

Hell’s invitation is burning out

The devil sends regards

Let me taste the apples again

Wouldn’t want to ruin your plan

Like I did the last time ha ha ha

So please release me

From these chains of doom

Paradise will never open up

For a man with chains of doom

The gates of hell open for anyone

Surely I can never be included

Only spotless lives approved

Wouldn’t want to ruin your garden there

I’m here to find out…
