Welcome here to the gates of freedom.
Glory, hope, justice, God's new kingdom.
Take your place in the line to redemption.
Open your eyes and see perfection.

Here we are born and here we'll die,
here we all lie and wonder why.
We are here to fade away,
blend again to the shades of grey.

Here we are born and here we'll die,
water in here doesn't turn to wine.
We are here to fade away,
blend again to the shades of grey.

Welcome here to the gates of despair.
Rise of the sun has never been seen here.
Do what you can to avoid damnation.
There's a prize for even salvation.

*Chorus*

Once you are here, you're here to stay.
This is the prize you're here to pay.
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust,
You are here for your own lust.

*Chorus*
