-------

Helvegen - "the way to hell" is a song about death and the journey to the afterlife, from a Norse mythology perspective.

The earth melds on his bare feet, leaving his prints on the damp surface covered in dried leaves and mud. Wandering through the lush forest, I the sound of the rustling leaves above, the chirping of birds, and sunlight that escapes every leaf that was rustled by the breeze. 

The scent of the forest after the rain, a life that springs at each step. He wandered and wandered deep into the forest green and vibrant he can almost feel it real.

"Kim .. Kim.. "- Vegas

A panicky voice shook me from my dream, and as a bile ran up to my throat irony and thick I cough up. What field my vision was red, blood red that washed my hands and the latter's clothing.

"NO... NO.. no.. please .. open your eyes .. focus on my voice Kim please!"- Vegas

"V..eeega..ssssss.. *huek.. cough cough.."- Kim

I looked above the weeping man's face, which I hadn't thought capable of crying tears, blood but not tears. But there he is weeping his eyes out chanting my name over and over again clutching my limp body in his warm embrace.

"Veegggaass... "- Kim

"Don't talk, they will be here soon please Kim don't close your eyes, stay with me...Look at me look... I'm here see... I can see you.."- Vegas

Desperately he clung to my bloodied hands pulling them over his cheeks, I can feel his tears and the tremors of his skin as he shrivel to his emotion. I smiled and his eyes faltered shaking his head, I can feel warmth leave me bit by bit.

"No no .. Kimmm!!!! I am going to kill you don't you dare die by another's hand! NO NO, it cannot be.. it can.. *sniffing ... not beee!!!!"- Vegas

"Ve.. gasss... my lo..ve....."- Kim

I tried so hard to move my fingers just to caress his cheek, assuring him that everything was okay and that it was going to be alright. He kissed my knuckles frantically tears uncontrollably streaming down his face.

"I love you, I love you, God please don't take him not now, not  today .. "- Vegas

I chuckled as Vegas never prayed he doesn't believe in that bullshit but what can a man do to prevent someone from going to the afterlife but beg, beg to be saved. I held his hand close and stared straight at the skies. Blood dripping from my mouth had gotten to my nose it had become harder to breathe.

"I  will... wait fo..ooorr youu in heell..ll Vegaaasss... myyy looo...*cough.. veee.. "- Kim

"No no ... no Kim fuck you don't you dare do this to me... Kimmm.. fuck Kimmm!! please I'm begging you ..."- Vegas

He wailed anger and sorrow but the warmth of his arms are still there, oh my dear Vegas. I will meet you in hell I will be waiting, for the sins, I must pay for the thousand people I had perished hell awaits for sinners like you and me. I have lived a short life but I spent half of it with you, If you can only hear my thoughts right now. You would be laughing, not like the crying mess you are now, with blood and dirt that covered your face, and the smell of gunpowder. 

"Ki...issss m...eee..."- Kim

Immediately he complied reaching down for a tender kiss as I stared at the open sky with hues of pink and blue, what a good day to die. As his lips left mine I was able to utter my last words before I took my last breath.

"I lo..oovvvee yyoouu...Veee..gg..aasss"- Kim

And the world turned black submerged in cold cold waters deep down the blackest crevice of hell and never to see the light that was once heaven for sinners like me.
