Hellfire Songtext
von The Mechanisms

My friends, my people, my flock
I have had a vision
A vast fiery orb, floating in an endless void
And there, so small, so fragile, us!
But falling, falling, falling into the flames!

Your soul is connected to the world you′re in
You're dragging it down with the weight of your sin
Surrounded by temptation and you just give in
We′re falling into the flames

That fire, that fire, that hellfire!
Your brow becomes slick as you perspire
You think you're thirsty now, wait till it gets drier
And you feel the heat of the flames

That fire, that fire, that hellfire!
Your sick and sinful lives will build a funeral pyre
Your perversion scars the station, son, it's gonna fry her
And we all fall into the flames


Oh, I have seen damnation, my brothers
I have felt its searing heat within my very bones
But there is a way we may be saved
′Oh tell us Father Galahad, tell us!′ I hear you cry
'Is it piety, is it purity, is it virtue?′
No! The only way to save us now is the holy grail itself!

Well, that orb of damnation makes the sun seem pale
You're quite correct to quiver, you are right to quail
The only way to save us is to find that grail
Or we all fall into the flames

That fire, that fire, that hellfire!
Your skin starts to sizzle as you expire
You claim to be virtuous, but you′re a liar!
And you'll feel the heat of the flames

I said Hellfire!
Hellfire!
Hellfire!
Hellfire!

That fire, that fire, that hellfire!
At the heart of the inferno that will never tire
I′ve seen the end is nigh, and damnation's nigher
Oh, we all fall into the flames!
