Straight Out Of Hell
Helloween Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Straight out of hell I‘m only livin‘ for today
I roll the dice I know that something strange is coming
I‘m cold as ice I always take it as it comes
Ain‘t no eternity, ain‘t no salvation
In this damnation we will burn
There‘s no tomorrow there is no farewell
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
I‘m gonna lose it but it feels so well
I‘m straight out of hell
No ace to play I live my life with no protection
The price I pay my act of grace will be denied
This road to hell and I won‘t find no resurrection
Cause I will sell my dirty soul to rock n‘ roll
Ain‘t no eternity, ain‘t no salvation
In this damnation we will burn
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
There‘s no tomorrow there is no farewell
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
I‘m gonna lose it but it feels so well
Straight out of hell
So sad and lonely I go down
No helping hand no soul around
I lost my faith so long ago
A million tears are gonna flow
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
There‘s no tomorrow there is no farewell
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
I‘m gonna lose it but it feels so well
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
There‘s no tomorrow there is no farewell
Straight out of hell, straight out of hell
I‘m gonna lose it but it feels so well
I’m straight out of hell

The path to hell is enticing, that's why it's overcrowded
It's meant to be a golden path. Until you decide to travel on the beaten and see the mangled corpses and entrails and the shadow hordes feasting upon still living victims (whom were tricked long ago in ages past)
But a crucifix, a bible and a candle is the only way to know false light from real light and darkness from shadow.
If you can endure the narrow path, and perserver the pain
Greater things await those whom with a bloodied soul, shall treverse space and time and see with vision divine what was meant to dwell in shadow

Straight Out Of Hell is my 2nd favorite Helloween record with Deris on vocals. I love this album. The only reason it's not my number 1 is because KOTSK Legacy has alot of nostalgia for me
@FranzKarma
