Man I was listening to Black Sabbath's Technical Ecstasy and the opening riff of the second track reminded me of THIS amazingly cool SONG with its slow and swinging groove and somber lyrics. Now I know what you're thinking: Technical Fucking Ecstasy, Dude? Really?? All I can say is I feel there is some good stuff on that album, though I do normally chill with one of the first six.
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
Saint Vitus is one of the best doom metal bands to ever exist.

Probably my fave track on my fave Vitus album

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
