The Gates of Hell

The Gates of Hell themselves will open wide
Before I let you go and run away;
For now you're in a place you cannot hide.

You said that you would never leave my side;
But now you're gone, the skies have all turned grey;
The Gates of Hell themselves will open wide.

You left, I sat there. Thought I would have cried.
The night's silence cut, the sound of a jay;
For now you're in a place you cannot hide.

You said you would always be here. You lied.
I say this to you. Now. Here and today;
The Gates of Hell themselves will open wide.

I thought I'd be able to cope, I tried,
But now I know that was never the way.
For now you're in a place you cannot hide.

Now, there is no time. You cannot abide.
Do what you wish, you may want to pray;
The Gates of Hell themselves will open wide,
For now you're in a place you cannot hide.
