When God destroyed the Sun
I cursed His name in anger
I called Him bad and made Him mad
My fate's in danger
I've been damned to Hell
For losing my faith in Him
That's fine as long as I can
Keep my lovely girlfriend
Until one of us dies
I want to spend all my time with her
I'll go to Hell a happy man
Since I've been damned to Hell
I'll do anything that I like
I'll keep sinning while I can
I've been fucking
I've been cursing
I've been stealing
To find relief from the aggression
I've been feeling
But when I'm holding her
So innocently near me
Sometimes forget
We'll separate eventually
I want to live a good life
But I've been damned to Hell
I must take advantage of my fate
I'll follow all my instincts
No consequences to fear
The human urge to sin's innate
High above the ground
We sleep together
She wakes up thirsty
And she says:
"I'm going for a drink of water and a swim.
Do you still love me?"
And of course I tell her:
"Yes."
A ladder made of wood
Stretches to the ground
My girl starts to descend
The treetop tall
Climbing down the ladder
From the treehouse
The ladder breaks
I see her fall
If I've been damned to Hell
I might as well just kill myself
Can't live without her
So I'll die
(yes I'll die)
(I guess I'll die)
