Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Torn from home, sent down death's railroad are we
[Verse 2]
When we wake up tomorrow will we still be wearing this curse?
Will we wake up tomorrow? Which punishment is worse?
[Verse 3]
Day 1: no sun
Stripped of our names
Now we are merely numbers, permanently inked in the flames
[Verse 4]
Our kind—our existence lights the fire
Igniting Hell on earth
Archangels, bending crosses, hooked
[Verse 5]
Innocent men, women, children, sentenced before conviction
With golden stars to guide them, their gavel is the end of a gun!
[Verse 6]
Day 2: lived through
More culprits arrive
Every cage so crowded... how will we survive through the night?
[Verse 7]
Our kind—our existence lights the fire
Igniting Hell on earth
Archangels, bending crosses, hooked
[Verse 8]
First day in Hell
First day in Hell
[Verse 9]
See the terror in abandoned gazes... fear sunken eyes
Get the guards and walk a dozen paces
Saturnine
[Verse 10]
First day in Hell
[Verse 11]
Incarcerated without reason
Doomed by blood
Anti-venom for a poisoned nation
Our birth-right
[Verse 12]
Week 5: alive
Soon out of time
After all that I've here witnessed there's no value in life
[Verse 13]
Our kind—our existence lights the fire
Igniting Hell on earth
Archangels, bending crosses, hooked
[Verse 14]
First day in Hell
First week in Hell
[Verse 15]
See the terror in abandoned gazes... fear sunken eyes
Get the guards and walk a dozen paces
Saturnine
[Verse 16]
First month in Hell
[Verse 17]
Incarcerated without reason
Doomed by blood
Anti-venom for a poisoned nation
Our birth-right
[Verse 18]
Last day in Hell
