Music/Lyrics by Sam Carroll

I’m bound for damnation, so they say
The love of God won’t reach me where I am
My enemies rejoice and my loved ones fade away
No one alive to greet me where I stand

Is this what it is to be a martyr? Is this what it is to die
For a cause? I’ve never known another
Be it now the worth inside me rally for my life
Hear my words, it is my soul I barter

One for the mother who lost to memory
Two for the lover who fought to forget me
Three for the matter and the mercy of my sins
Four for the men who cried “damnation”
Five then again I reach salvation
Six for the game that the devil let me win

Baby it’s a damn cold fire
And as the flames burn higher
I pray to hell or heaven to come and get me
(The rains’ coming, the rain is coming)
I cannot cry to God for mercy
He doesn’t hear the cries of the cursed
He walked away the day the daddy devil sent for me

Who is the soul creator and where is he now?
What have I done to become victim to slander?
This is not my final hour, this I do avow
I will become a wraith of raging candor

Is this what it is to be a martyr? Is this what it is to burn
For a god whose angels build my pyre?
Come now try and kill me harder, a diligence I earned
Hear my words, I raise my bargain higher

Seven for the lover who thought to leave me
Eight for the brother who bought and retrieved me
Nine for the number of bodies in my wake
Ten for the men I fought and paid for
‘Leven for the heaven I’d gladly trade for
Twelve for the traitors, you will pay for your mistakes

Baby it’s a damn cold fire
And as the flames burn higher
I pray to hell or heaven to come and get me
(The rains’ coming, the rain is coming)
I cannot cry to God for mercy
He doesn’t hear the cries of the cursed
He walked away the day the daddy devil sent for me

(But the rain’s coming, the rain is coming)
(The rain’s coming, the rain is coming)
The rain is coming down
(The rain’s coming, the rain is coming)
(The rain’s coming, the rain is coming)

Oh you fools, you thought you had me
Cursed me forever and sought to brand me
But you don’t know the power that you wake
For I am free, I am free
All my words are greater than me
I live on until the memory of me breaks

Oh the rain is coming down
And the world is my pyre
Let it burn, let it burn
Oh the rain is coming down
And the flames are climbing higher
Watch your back, who’s bound for hellfire now?
Oh the rain is coming down
I will watch your city smolder
Oh the rain is coming down
Are the flames getting colder?
