The elements of this song resembles the common elements of their previous album ''[[Life Is Killing Me]]''. The jets are heard at the end of this track just prior to the masculine scream in a way that sounds like he's on fire following a some sort of explosion. This track is split into three cantos, with first and third cantos utilizing same musical pieces but different names. == Lyrics == <poem class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"> {{Canto|I|Pity}} Once upon a slime I thought you royalty I would never have questioned your loyalty Don't act so surprised, saw through you disguise But with friends like you prefer my enemies, yeah, hell Up until recently never had a clue In a way I must admit I pity you I'm through with you kind, 'cause you've wasted my time Please do not release them, Lord knows what they do, yeah I can't believe how cruel life is Emotional blackmail makes me sick, oh so sick [Choir] {{Canto|II|Misfortune}} Who is to blame for constant shame on you These words I use that don't confuse with cool This misfortune not lost but won deserved Choosing is hard, careful which God you serve Traitors many, surrounding me cowards Conspiracy so clear to see flowers We were brothers 'til discovered, deceit Tried with treason that's the reason you're beat {{Canto|III|Hail and Farewell to Britain}} I can't believe how cruel life is Emotional blackmail makes me sick, oh so sick [Choir] All hail and farewell to Britain All hail and farewell to thee All hail and farewell to England All hail and farewell to me, me All hail and farewell to Britain All hail and farewell to thee All hail and farewell to England All hail and farewell to me, me All hail and farewell to Britain All hail and farewell to thee All hail and farewell to England All hail and farewell to me </poem> == Personnel == '''Group performers''' * '''[[Peter Steele]]''' β lead vocals, bass * [[Kenny Hickey]] β guitar, backing vocals * [[Josh Silver]] β keyboards, synth, backing vocals * [[Johnny Kelly]] β drums '''Enginucers''' * '''[[Peter Steele]]''' β writing, production * [[Josh Silver]] β engineering, recording, effects, mixing, mastering, production * {{wp|Mike Marciano}} β engineering, recording, mixing, mastering * Paul Bento β additional recording engineering * [[Type O Negative]] β arrangement {{Songs|Dead}} [[Category:Songs]] [[Category:Dead Again tracks]] [[Category:Songs divided into cantos]] [[Category:Cantos]] [[Category:Songs with alternate title]]
