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

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
