Brought anguish to the eyes 00:24

Of all god-fearing people 00:25

With eternal afterlives 00:26

Sin and lust run rampant now 00:27

Perversion on the rise 00:28

Reliving all the ways of old 00:28

Gommorrah realized 00:30

Sodom, an unholy place 00:37

Angels searched for a few 00:38

Souls who'd yet to fall from grace 00:39

To save them from the doom 00:40

Paradise of pleasures lost 00:41

Herein the future lies 00:42

Inside the city gates 02:24

Worshipping the holy priests 02:25

The masters of all hate 02:27

The flag of the inverted cross 02:30

Menacing, held high 02:31

Laughing at the "holy cross" 02:32

At twelve, the virgin dies! 02:34

Our righteous family did escape 02:42

The family-father lot 02:43

Sinful daughters succumbed to rape 02:44

Not as holy as thought! 02:45

Mankind throughout eternity 02:47

Built on evils' designs 02:48

The resilience of iniquity 02:49

Lives on in christian minds 02:49

Falling from the heavens 02:56

The Burning Of Sodom

Once, the tale of Sodom

Brought anguish to the eyes

Of all god-fearing people

With eternal afterlives

Sin and lust run rampant now

Perversion on the rise

Reliving all the ways of old

Gommorrah realized

Sodom, an unholy place

Angels searched for a few

Souls who'd yet to fall from grace

To save them from the doom

Paradise of pleasures lost

Herein the future lies

Laughing at the "holy cross"

As death rained from the skies

Falling from the heavens

Angels lie decayed

Burning, city of Sodom

One by one, sinners pay

Skeptics failed to heed the call

Of angels sent to tell

Of the impending death to all

In blazing city hell

Consorting with the demons craft

The ways of god repelled

Burning cross, cause to laugh

Lot, the one expelled

Falling from the heavens

Angels lie decayed

Burning, city of Sodom

One by one, sinners pay

The sufferers' impalement

Inside the city gates

Worshipping the holy priests

The masters of all hate

The flag of the inverted cross

Menacing, held high

Laughing at the "holy cross"

At twelve, the virgin dies!

Our righteous family did escape

The family-father lot

Sinful daughters succumbed to rape

Not as holy as thought!

Mankind throughout eternity

Built on evils' designs

The resilience of iniquity

Lives on in christian minds

Falling from the heavens

Angels lie decayed

Burning, city of Sodom

One by one, sinners pay!
