MDXXXVIII. Sol Invictus - A Rose in Hell

A Rose in Hell

I raised the hammer
I tolled the bell
For I picked a flower
A rose in Hell
O, I deceived
With my tales to tell
Then I picked a flower
A rose in Hell
With trinkets I bartered
I buy and sell
Then I picked a flower
A rose in Hell
I embraced the thorns
And the heavens yelled
Though I picked a flower
A rose in Hell
Go light me a candle
To break the spell
For I picked a flower
A rose in Hell
O, I am damned
I can tell
For I picked a flower
A rose in Hell
