SCORCHED
Burned inside and out,
in this world that burns,
fires of hell.
Among flames,
where the sun blazes,
inhospitable artificial heat,
beneath a layer of filth.
Where the body suffocates, perishes,
in the withered, terrifying world,
dreadful times to live.
Time running out,
hell among flames,
with nowhere to flee,
amid earthquakes,
amid falsehoods,
evil times,
no way out.
Inhuman,
perverted times,
times for us to burn
in the devil's hell,
where light turns away from everything.
In the Babylon of the gods,
false, burning gods
dragging us,
down to our very souls,
into hell.

ABRASADO
Quemado por dentro y por fuera,
en este mundo que arde,
fuegos del infierno.
Entre llamas,
donde arde el sol,
inhóspito calor artificial,
entre una capa de suciedad.
Donde el cuerpo se asfixia, perece,
en el mundo marchito, aterrador,
tiempos pavorosos para vivir.
Terminando el tiempo,
infierno entre llamas,
sin lugar donde huir,
entre terremotos,
entre falsedades,
malos tiempos,
sin salida.
Inhumanos,
pervertidos tiempos,
tiempos para quemarnos
en el infierno del demonio,
donde la luz se aparta de todo.
En la Babilonia de los dioses,
falsos dioses ardientes
que nos arrastran,
hasta el alma,
al infierno.
