Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I hear claws on the concrete Smell sulfur in the rain Ash footprints on my doorstep They came here knowing my name Shadow teeth in the doorway Eyes like open graves They circle Patient and smiling Like wolves that finally ate [Chorus] But I will pet the hounds of Hell Stroke the fire from their backs If this is how my story ends Let it end like that Put my hand in the burning jaws Hear them growl “You’re ours You fell” I’m still scratching behind their ears I still pet the hounds of Hell [Verse 2] One lays down on my carpet Tail thumping on the floor Drool dripping Pitch-black and steaming Charred fur I still want more I name each ugly angel I joke “You’re kinda cute” They laugh with thunder in their throats Say “We’ve waited long for you” [Chorus] ‘Cause I will pet the hounds of Hell Kiss the embers on their snouts If mercy never learned my face I’ll go laughing Heading south Put my head on their armored chests Feel that furnace start to swell If something’s here to tear me apart I still pet the hounds of Hell [Bridge] Come fetch me Come get me (come on) I’m the fool who holds out treats To the teeth under the sheets If I’m prey I’m still play (still play) I was born to love the things That were built to eat my wings [Chorus] So I will pet the hounds of Hell While they drag me through the dirt Run my fingers through the coals Say “Do your holy worst” Let the chains wrap ‘round my legs Let the bells of judgment yell I’ll be laughing in the firelight Still petting the hounds of Hell (yeah)

Verses pulse over tom-heavy, tribal grooves and eerie pads; chorus explodes with soaring melody, double-kick bursts, and stacked gang vocals. Bridge drops to atmospheric drones and whispered lines, then slams back in with a half-time, neck-snapping breakdown and a final, drawn-out scream., new age
