Oh, Lord have mercy
Ive travelled all my life
To a place thats long forgotten
A place thats in my mind
I hurt the ones that loved me
The beast could not be tamed
Bringing hate and agony
Why should I be ashamed
Bridge
A journey full of lies
My heart as cold as ice
Let your spirit be your guide
To the gates of paradise
Chorus
Again - to hell and back again
Oh, Lord have mercy
Dont you turn your back on me
I sold my soul to darkness
For the promise to be free
I washed my hands in innocennce
I cursed your Holy Son
Raped the soul of freedom
Oh, Lord what have I done
Ive travelled all my life
To a place thats long forgotten
A place thats in my mind
I hurt the ones that loved me
The beast could not be tamed
Bringing hate and agony
Why should I be ashamed
Bridge
A journey full of lies
My heart as cold as ice
Let your spirit be your guide
To the gates of paradise
Chorus
Again - to hell and back again
Oh, Lord have mercy
Dont you turn your back on me
I sold my soul to darkness
For the promise to be free
I washed my hands in innocennce
I cursed your Holy Son
Raped the soul of freedom
Oh, Lord what have I done
