Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sold into slavery down in New Orleans
Goddess of the bayou light
Black dog's head on the killing bed
Severed and left to bleed
There on fire, in the corner of the world
There in misery
There on fire, in the corner of the world
Left for God to see
[Verse 2]
Do you want to take a life?
Do you want to cross that line?
'Cause it's a long way back from Hell
And you don't want to go with me
[Verse 3]
Yeah, poison father of the human race
God of the tainted blood
Malevolence sneaking up the spine of the world
Ready for the bastard son
There on fire in the veins of man
There in misery
There on fire in the veins of man
Left for God to see
[Verse 4]
Do you want to take a life?
Do you want to cross that line?
'Cause it's a long way back from Hell
And you don't want to go with me
[Verse 5]
Do you want to take a life?
Do you want to take a life? Yeah
Do you want to cross that line? Oh
Do you want to cross that line?
Want to cross that line?
[Verse 6]
Oh, sold into slavery down in New Orleans
Goddess of the bayou light
Black dog's head on the killing bed
Severed and left to bleed
There on fire, in the corner of the world
There in misery
Lucifer's face in the mirror when you look
Left for God to see
[Verse 7]
Do you want to take a life?
Do you want to cross that line?
'Cause it's a long way back from Hell
And you don't want to go with me
[Verse 8]
And it's a long way back from Hell
And you don't want to go
