lyrics

I died in a gutter in east Berlin
Choked on the sewage and regurgitated gin
Across the river and under the gate
Abandon all hope the directive did dictate

But of the good to treat
There I found not a few
The punishment undue

Ah! my faithful lustful friends, with you I empathize
Blown about in the storm never again to shut your eyes
Underneath the mud and the icy rain
The swine and the gluttons from conusumption now refrain

Time is not our friend
For hopes that won't come true
We are all in a queue

There are nine circles
In which do you belong?
The countless faithless somewhere went wrong
And all I sought was truth, with hell I'm repaid

Avarice and prodigality
In their strife will not find the golden mean
For the wrathful will fight and the slothful will drown
Eternally confined to the river's murky brown

Oh Farinata
With your soul aflame
Seek joy find shame

In a boiling river of blood immersed
The takers of lives and those that took their own first
The fraudulent liars and thieves intertwine
They were not two nor one their bodies realigned

Ah your wounds may heal
They will be torn again
In this unbroken chain

Up to their wretched necks ever encased in ice
The truly treacherous here doubly pay the price
The beast once as fair as now he is black
Chewing on Iscariot and scratching him on the back

Oh fallen angel
I shed tears for thee
When will you be free?

There are nine circles
In which do you belong?
The countless faithless somewhere went wrong
And all I sought was truth, with hell I'm repaid
