Dante: Gates of the Damned - Alt

(Verse 1) Through the arch of wrath, the gate declares, “Abandon hope,” the flame-bound heirs. The screams of souls, the boiling blood, The rivers run a crimson flood. Writhing in fire, the traitors cry, Chained to sins, they cannot die. A labyrinth of endless pain, Eternal torment, hell's domain. (Chorus) Gates of the damned, where shadows scream, A waking nightmare, no reprieve from the dream. Downward we spiral, to the burning throne, The sins of the flesh, forever atone. (Verse 2) Cerberus howls, the gluttons fall, Condemned to feast, consumed by all. The lustful spin in a tempest’s gale, The weight of their sins, the devil's scale. Frozen fields where the traitors freeze, Cocytus whispers in icy pleas. In the final pit, the betrayer reigns, Chewing on kings in eternal chains. (Chorus) Gates of the damned, where shadows scream, A waking nightmare, no reprieve from the dream. Downward we spiral, to the burning throne, The sins of the flesh, forever atone. (Bridge) Beelzebub, the frozen king, Beats his wings and death does sing. No light can pierce the endless night, A world devoured by hate’s delight. (Chorus) Gates of the damned, where shadows scream, A waking nightmare, no reprieve from the dream. Downward we spiral, to the burning throne, The sins of the flesh, forever atone. (Outro) So bow before the infernal tide, A realm where the virtuous never abide. For the wicked and damned, this is your end, The gates forever closed, where time will not bend.
