And there I stood, on the edge of a dream,
A mystical paradise, like none I've ever seen,
Water-colored flowers in a gentle misty breeze,
A sweet scent of Jasmine fills the air, then suddenly,
The clouds turn dark, the sky a pale red,
Jasmine overcome by the decaying of the dead,
Water-colored flowers overshadowed by shame,
My paradise crumbles and bursts into flames,
Screams of agony
Awaken my shame
Forever tormented
By unquenching flames
Paradise lost
And then a figure stands close to my side
His arms are stretched out a million miles wide
He points to a place with a fiery glow
And tells me that this is the place I must go,
Screams of agony
Awaken my shame
Forever tormented
By unquenching flames
Paradise lost
Quick as a flash I am burning with fire,
If only I'd turned from my evil desires,
I think of a time when I knelt to a cross,
But now I'm tormented, my paradise lost
Defeat is expected in this fiery hell,
For this is the place where appollyon dwells,
The ancient serpent, the devil, the Beast,
And my soul's a part of his decadent feast,
My flesh is on fire the pain is intense,
If only I had the chance to repent,
I'd run from this place and I'd never return,
But there's no repentance, forever i burn.
(solo Charlie)
Screams of agony
Awaken my shame
Forever tormented
By unquenching flames
Paradise lost
