its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Behold, Lucifer, the master of darkness and lies
The Lord of your defeat has come for your evil ways
You're doomed!
Guilty of deceit
The next stop is the lake of death
Bounded by chains before the God of judgment
"Vengeance is mine" thus saith the Lord
This vengeance is mine!
Satan, prince of hate,
you'll pay for what you've done
It will soon be over
for all who has hated the Son
Now condemned and thrown alive
Into the pit you go
Behold your defeat
as you're chained in the bottomless pit
Forsaken with no escape, left for a thousand years
You're doomed!
Shortly after this, forever will be in flames
In flames
As fire rains down from the heavens,
your face will read defeat
Witness this doom with sorrow
as you're thrown into the lake of death
Tortured through night and day
In burning sulfur you'll reign forever
This will be your doom
Your doom!
The Lord of your defeat has come for your evil ways
You're doomed!
Guilty of deceit
The next stop is the lake of death
Bounded by chains before the God of judgment
"Vengeance is mine" thus saith the Lord
This vengeance is mine!
Satan, prince of hate,
you'll pay for what you've done
It will soon be over
for all who has hated the Son
Now condemned and thrown alive
Into the pit you go
Behold your defeat
as you're chained in the bottomless pit
Forsaken with no escape, left for a thousand years
You're doomed!
Shortly after this, forever will be in flames
In flames
As fire rains down from the heavens,
your face will read defeat
Witness this doom with sorrow
as you're thrown into the lake of death
Tortured through night and day
In burning sulfur you'll reign forever
This will be your doom
Your doom!

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
