Could someone tell me all the steps
To far forsake your soul
Could someone lay them out for me
The blueprints that they stole
The devil guards the very sins
That make your life worth while
That make your life a token
To walk the scarlet isle
Pass these gates with every word
With every cold remark
Destroy the love within you
And empty out your heart
What I've found from all these laws
These rules to make you Hell-worthy
That Hell desires, someone like me
To make it's walls more sturdy
I am but a candidate
To climb the stairs to Hell
And all who think they're perfect, here
Should look inside themselves
Do you see an enemy
Do you resemble fear
If others heard your whispers, too
Would they leave with hateful ear
When life is but a passageway
Climb the staircase higher
Fight what you're created for
And succumb to your desire
What do you see inside yourself
Do you see repelling beams
Does light reflect, your hatred
With an armor of self esteem
These are but the blueprints
And this is my staircase
I sin till my arrival
In this far forsaken place
When so much takes, to reach this state
This staircase is too long
Destination becomes my destiny
For where sinful hearts belong
Every thing my past has kept
My words of agony
Has left me waiting, patiently
Along Hell's grand marquis
Waiting for the end
Where the devil reads my work
Where I am but accepted
And I glow with such a smirk
Our lives are filled with tests
With scars we leave behind
Maybe when you reach me
You'll understand your crimes
Daily disgrace to other souls
Shall leave yours struck with grief
When life is but your cancer
Hell becomes your new relief
And I wallow 'long the stepping stones
Of where my body dwells
The path is long, and narrow
On these stepping stones to Hell
The others walk behind me
But I cannot look back
For my hate, has swept through other souls
And now they follow in my tracks
I step through all the silence
And the pain is quite discreet
The words to pierce a victim’s heart
Lay helpless, at my feet
All the grief is thriving here
And my home is not too far
A place of my creation
With the gates slightly ajar
Now I've found the blueprints
I bid you all farewell
My life has found it’s destiny
Along the stepping stones to Hell
