Nobody here is safe.
What is that? Thunder rolls.
Laughter erupts, nothing is safe.
The bells. Bells, bells, bells.
They are driving me mad.
I would stand my ground if I could tell
The difference between beasts and man.
My head splits from the tolling bells.
My soul cries out into the night.
The earth has opened up for Hell,
And abandoned reason and life.
A terrible war has become,
And man cannot win.
Satan has won,
And our torture has begun.

The Tolling Bell

Quiet. The bells toll.
Nobody here is safe.
What is that? Thunder rolls.
Laughter erupts, nothing is safe.
The bells. Bells, bells, bells.
They are driving me mad.
I would stand my ground if I could tell
The difference between beasts and man.
My head splits from the tolling bells.
My soul cries out into the night.
The earth has opened up for Hell,
And abandoned reason and life.
A terrible war has become,
And man cannot win.
Satan has won,
And our torture has begun.
