This is the reason
My life is full of treason
Hope is all but lost
In Hell I am to rot
Where is my way?
The one I paved
Through disgust I fall
In Hell I dwell
There is no hope
Sliding down the slope
Never to make it back again
Never to reach the high
Someplace I have fallen
Along the way I have trodden
No place to rest
No where to run
I follow the road of infamy
Solemn words praise no one
Silent whispers upon the wind
Living with my sins
