Let me tell you a story,
About the difference between a sinner and a liar,
About the difference between a pretender and someone who follows their heart,
About the good and the evil, who might be less different than they seem,
So just listen closely,
And try not to forget,
You know that I got no wings,
And you know that I am right,
A halo is no monument,
Cuz a shadow falls in the light,
It makes no sense to drop the sword,
Cause you might die where you stand,
So please don’t drop a tear,
If life works not as you planned,
A sin is not a lie,
And just no cause to cry,
You might understand,
If I tell you where I’m from,
I came from hell,
I ain’t no innocent man,
I live on fire and smoke,
I came from hell,
I don’t wanna be an angel,
Cause I would die alone,
Can you see how we pretend,
How we act as if we‘d know,
Angels wings and a devils smile,
At the best it is just show,
They hide behind a mask,
And a halo is their crown,
They’ll end up as fallen kings,
Their lies will put them down,
A sin is not a lie,
And just no cause to cry,
You might understand,
If I tell you where I’m from,
I came from hell,
I ain’t no innocent man,
I live on fire and smoke,
I came from hell,
I don’t wanna be an angel,
Cause I would die alone,
I came from hell,
I ain’t no innocent man,
I live on fire and smoke,
I came from hell,
I don’t wanna be an angel,
Cause I would die alone,
I came from hell,
I ain’t no innocent man,
I live on fire and smoke,
I came from hell,
I don’t wanna be an angel,
Cause I would die alone.
