Lyrics: Buehner

Its fucking pointless
A suicide machine
We're going through this
At generation speed
It's hell fire it's holy water
Bloodshot eyes and empty offers
And it's like this
I noticed you were wrong
Subliminal message in the red lights on the wall
Panic your demons
A secret on a chain
Another Judas
With no skin in the game
It's hell fire it's holy water
Pacify your inner martyr
I noticed you were wrong
Subliminal message in the red lights on the wall
Conceal the wreckage
I'm not defecting
Gnashing on my teeth
Clip off my wings
It's all my premonition
Conceal the wreckage
I'm not defective
Crossing out the tears
X out my world
I lay my head down
Resurrect the lie
And one eye open
Watching the blood dry
I noticed you were wrong
Subliminal message in the red lights on the wall
Conceal the wreckage
I'm not defective
Gnashing on my teeth
Clip off my wings
It's all my premonition
Conceal the wreckage
I'm not defected
Gnashing on my teeth
Broke off my wings
It's all my premonition
Conceal the wreckage
Conceal the wreckage
Crossing out my world
Crossing out my world
The Loyal Order's song "Hellfire" is a powerful depiction of the internal struggles that one faces while dealing with their demons. The song starts with a hardened, almost despondent tone, with lyrics like, "It's fucking pointless, a suicide machine. We're going through this at generation speed." This droning despair sets the stage for the rest of the song as the singer delves deeper into their internal turmoil, battling against the oppressive nature of the world.
The chorus perfectly encapsulates the themes of the song in a few biting lines, "It's hellfire, it's holy water, pacify your inner martyr." The use of "hellfire" and "holy water" creates an interesting contrast, as they represent opposite ends of the religious spectrum, yet are used interchangeably, suggesting a blending of ideas and concepts that the singer is wrestling with. The message is clear, albeit bleak: one must find a way to quell the longings of their inner self, an inner martyrdom that can lead to self-destruction.
The song ends on a note of desperation, with a repetition of the line, "Conceal the wreckage, crossing out my world." Overall, "Hellfire" is a powerful song about the battle within oneself, the struggle against the darkness that lies within.

Its fucking pointless
This struggle is meaningless and not worth the effort
A suicide machine
This situation is a trap that leads to destruction
We're going through this
We're experiencing this situation
At generation speed
At a pace that is consistent with the rate of change from one generation to the next
It's hell fire it's holy water
This is a mix of good and bad elements that can bring salvation and destruction at the same time
Bloodshot eyes and empty offers
The promises made are superficial and false
And it's like this
This is how it is
I noticed you were wrong
I realized that you were mistaken
Subliminal message in the red lights on the wall
Hidden communication is being transmitted through the red lights on the wall
Panic your demons
Confront your fears and insecurities
A secret on a chain
A hidden burden that is continuously carried
Another Judas
Another traitor or deceiver
With no skin in the game
Without any personal risk or investment in the situation
Pacify your inner martyr
Silence the voice inside that wants to sacrifice oneself in the name of a cause
Conceal the wreckage
Hide the destruction that has been caused
I'm not defecting
I'm not abandoning my stance or beliefs
Gnashing on my teeth
Feeling intense anger or frustration
Clip off my wings
Remove my ability to fly or escape from the situation
It's all my premonition
This sense of foreboding has been present from the beginning
Crossing out the tears
Suppressing or hiding one's emotions
X out my world
Erase or remove everything that was once important
I lay my head down
I rest, but I am not at peace
Resurrect the lie
Believing a falsehood once again
And one eye open
Remain cautious and vigilant
Watching the blood dry
Watching the consequences of one's actions unfold
Conceal the wreckage
Hide the destruction that has been caused
Crossing out my world
Erase or remove everything that was once important
