Hell on Earth

I have found out hell on earth,
hell on earth,
hell on earth.
I have found out hell on earth,
beyond the easterly mounts.

For here all that is green,
is a danger and mean,
with fire to drink,
and a baleful stink.

For here all that is green,
is a danger and mean,
with ashes to eat,
and shackled feet.

For here all that is green,
is a danger and mean,
in thrall of those worse,
by a race like a curse.

You can enter hell on earth,
hell on earth,
hell on earth.
You can enter hell on earth,
but you cannot return.

For here all that is free,
a wild killing spree,
order a chain,
in the acid rain.

For here all that is free,
a wild killing spree,
law but a blade,
no rest in the shade.

For here all that is free,
a wild killing spree,
under the yoke,
thrall backs broke.

You can die in hell on earth,
hell on earth,
hell on earth.
You can die in hell on earth,
just like all my friends did.

For here all that is firm,
will make you squirm,
no pair of socks,
and molten rocks.

For here all that is firm,
will make you squirm,
Obsidian and steel,
will bring you to heel.

For here all that is firm,
will make you squirm,
crawl, run or stand,
your flesh to brand.

You wouldn't believe it if you saw,
if you saw,
if you saw.
You wouldn't believe it if you saw,
for you'd go mad like me.

- Folk song from the eastern Border Princes
