Hell is Closed for Business

What if the gates of hell were locked from the inside? Not because, as C.S. Lewis implied, we trap ourselves in our own misery, but because we are simply too horrible to be allowed in. What if the literal demons in Hell have had enough of our nonsense and closed up shop? Honestly, that is where my mind immediately went when I read that quote. I mean, it went there first. I’m not sure what that says about me, but it definitely says something about the human race. So, all in fun, I hope you’ll enjoy this song.

Verse
I heard that hell was empty
The demons all lived here
That is funny on the surface
But truth is not as clear
You see the demons are in hell
And they have locked the gates
Humanity is wicked
A fact we can’t debate

Chorus
I saw it in a dream
The locking up of hell
Human souls no longer wanted
By the tortured personnel

Verse
I wonder where we'll all go
When we finally depart
Heaven surely wouldn’t want us
I guess they’re just as smart
The angels and the demons
Don’t want us in their spaces
Humanity is awful
We’re banned from all those places

Chorus
I saw it in a dream
The locking up of hell
Human souls no longer wanted
By the tortured personnel

Outro
Perhaps we’d go to limbo
I’ve heard that was a thing
But what’s the point of going
If we can’t have any wings
