Shooting gallery


Last night I went to Hell

Of the stench of death
The tenement, it smelled

The shooting gallerie's breath

I saw women and men

Kill themselves again and again

They make their own disease
And the end they will not see

Yesterday I had a girl

To me, she meant all the world

Until the needle filled her arm

Now she fills me with alarm

Tombstone graves fill her eyes

She looks at me with mad despise
I pitty her destiny

Now she's only hating me

They say that they don't care at all

The world is fucking sad

On that point I agree with them

But nothing is that bad

Poison disease, eating through their minds

They will never see the end of the line

I will never understand why they do it to themselves

Why they choose a life that so resembles Hell

Now I stand in pouring rain

At a friend's funeral again
Tears fill my eyes

He lived a tortured life
And as I walk away
I see another stray

It seems so sad to me
Stumbling down the street

[Repeat chorus]

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Saint Vitus is an American doom metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1979 as Tyrant. The name change occurred in 1981, marking the beginning of their career as one of the pillars of the doom metal genre. The music of Saint Vitus is characterized by a slow and heavy sound, influenced by classic heavy metal and blues. Their songs often explore dark and introspective themes, with lyrics that reflect melancholy and existential angst. Among the most representative tracks are "Born Too Late", "Die Slowly" and "The Serpent's Tongue". The self-titled debut album of 1984 is considered a classic of the doom metal genre, along with subsequent works such as "Saint Vitus II" (1985) and "V" (1987). The band has influenced numerous other doom metal bands and continues to be a significant presence in the underground music scene.
