Sulfur burns my eyes,
And magma burns my feet.
Hellhounds looking down on me,
They must think I'm their meat.
They jump upon my throat,
I would scream but I can't.
Blood is spurting from my neck,
I may beg but I shan't.
The devil watches from his throne,
With anticipation and glee.
Black ooze is dripping from his jowls,
I will never be free.
Pain rushes throughtout my head,
As torture now begins.
But now I am the demon,
With demonic leather wings.
So I relish in the screams,
And relish in demonic taunts.
For he never shall be free from here,
This true and infernal haunt.
