1. TREACHERY MOST FOUL

You, frozen in ice, I beg you tell me
Who were you in life, when blood ran warm?

I was the first born of Adam and heir to his lands
For the love of his woman he ripped himself from paradise
Then my mother bore Abel, who cast me from favor
So I slew him to regain my mother's love and still
I wait, here alone

You, who still draws breath, why trample on me?
Do you seek vengeance against me more?

Tell me poor soul who you are and what you have done
Your arrogance is lost here so speak to me of your misdeeds
By the Gods you are Bocca! Betrayer of Florence
Burn eternal in knowing your name will mirror your sin
As a traitor!

Here, bitten and clawed, one called Judas
He who betrayed the Son then watched him die

Slayer of Jesus!


2. DESIRE IS PAIN

Here a thousand shades, absent from our lives
For love and the touch of another
Transgressions of the flesh led them to this state
Forever soaring in Hell's hurricane!

Speak to me battered souls, if you are allowed
Tell the tale of your fall from grace
"As was done before, I did break my vow.
Now I must return to the storm."

Hellish gale, never ends
Love has died, desire is pain

Demon wind, accursed storm
No hope for rest, or lesser pain
Flying through darkness, eternally blind
Cursing the force that betrayed them


3. CHANT OF SCORN

On this despondent shore, all that I see
Justice of God, torture and pain
Those who have kept or wasted fortune's golden hand
Must now atone, and forever collide

Chant of scorn, chest to the wheel
Why do you hoard? Why do you squander?

To you who have concealed all of your gold
May your torment expand a thousand times
And to you who have lost the fortune of King's
The Lord bestowed upon you
May your pain be long, and your screams obscene

Chant of scorn, chest to the wheel
Why do you hoard? Why do you squander?

On this despondent shore, all that I see
Justice of God, torture and pain
Those who have kept or wasted fortune's golden hand
Must now atone, and forever collide

Chant of scorn
Chest to the wheel
Why do you hoard?
Why do you squander?

Justice of God?
