Why Couldn't I Wait?

Rattlin' chains batter my brain, but I can't be free
I took the blame, there's nothing but flames and I can't see

The man comes up to me and asks my name
I tell him and he welcomes me to the game
There's fire all around but I still feel cold
Why couldn't I wait to die 'til I got old?

Sin and hate inside this gate I can't get out
Greed and fear, it's always near it's all about

There's fire all around but I still feel cold
Why couldn't I wait to die 'til I got old?

I'd die ten times more if I could get to the place in the sky

The man comes up to me and asks my name
I tell him and he welcomes me to the game
There's fire all around but I still feel cold
Why couldn't I wait to die 'til I got old?
