Hell on Earth Lyrics

Amazing song. Just a great end to the album. Lots of feel in this song. I can’t help but think of all the people who live with war in their life everyday. We are so blessed to not have to go to bed each night wondering if our town or village will be blown away. I hear this song from the perspective of one who has lived through that. They’ve armed their children. They’ve lost friends and neighbors. They’ve been injured. Truly a Hell on Earth each and every day. Yet, they find hope and peace in the promise of Heaven, where they will see those lost again. I love the guitar melody playing along with the lyrics. Love the solos. Love the anger in Bruce’s voice in the end. Just an amazing song.
