Shooting Gallery Lyrics - Mournful Cries - Saint Vitus

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]
