Oh Lord, my God and Savior
Watch over me in this place
This place The Living Hell
This place I cannot bid farewell
Oh Lord, help me
Help me save myself
Help me when we meet them
When we meet them face to face
I look to the heavens
In hopes there will be a sign
But as I look towards the ground
I notice my best friend entwined
Still, no sign
