[Verse 1]
I'll be with them asleep and dreaming
I'll be there when they wake up screaming
At the hour of death then I will nurse them
To have a moment more to curse them

[Verse 2]
Watch the maggots crawl out of them
Hear the angels call above them
See them as the cold air sucks them
Down to hell, goodnight, God love them

[Verse 3]
If any should escape above me
I'll beg and cheat until they trust me
And drag them down to be damned with me
Laugh at them as they forgive me

[Chorus]
Mother's eyes are sparkling diamonds
Still the moon shows no light
This rose is withered, may God deliver
The rake at the gates of hell tonight

[Verse 4]
I wish that they could walk forever
On the earth, alone, unfettered
'Til they pray for consolation
'Til they beg for sweet damnation
