lyrics

In the third circle, I see it dwell.
Stormwinds of hate, third circle of Hell.
Feeling the breath in the throat of the beast.
Erupting bark, crimson eyes, gnashing of teeth.
Eyes cast down on the souls of the damned.
The wealthy die here for the lives they have spanned.
Tormenting souls for their gluttonous ways.
The beast now eats, it's them he will slay.

Behold demon Cerberus, his domain now accursed. Fierce and strange, the damned in chains. Bearing his claws, clenching his fangs. Gluttony a sin for thee. Just to see the beast set free. Rip my flesh and break my bones. The price of greed, now I know.

Behold the demon. Third ward of Satan.
Behold the demon. Third ward of Satan.

[Solo J. Bender]
[Solo A. Strobel]

Behold demon Cerberus, his domain now accursed. Fierce and strange, the damned in chains. Bearing his claws, clenching his fangs. Gluttony a sin for thee. Just to see the beast set free. Rip my flesh and break my bones. The price of greed, now I know.

My guardian speaks despicable deeds. The unholy hordes, their unholy needs. Of all of the torture and all of the pain; the ceaseless beatings, the conflagrant rain. Hellfire, brimstone, torment and shame. Sinners and demons alike in their chains. With Cain as my witness, I say unto thee, "Get on your knees for the hell hounds three."

Behold the demon. Third ward of Satan.
Behold the demon. Cerberus.

Begging for mercy but now it's too late. The demon who lives here is nothing but hate. Lucifer's pet now free to roam. Crushing our hopes, invading our homes. Bringing us back to the hell we have forged. Living our lives, fully engorged. I sit and watch the beast eat your soul. Gnawing and crunching devouring you whole.

Eat you whole.

Before Cerberus.
