"Chance in Hell" is the refrain echoed throughout the song lamenting an implicit hopelessness of the spirit struggling to survive against the often lonely backdrop of a beautiful and haunted world.
lyrics
I haven’t got a chance in hell
Of seein the great beyond
I haven’t got a chance in hell
Of stickin it out for that long
I’ve been outside walkin a thousand steps gone wrong
I haven’t got a chance in hell for us
We haven’t got a chance in hell
Of makin it out of this fog
We haven’t got a chance in hell
Of seein that light in the dark
I could burn my eyes out on a thousand setting suns
We haven’t got a chance in hell for us
Ooh I haven’t got a chance in hell
I haven’t got a chance in hell
To be anything beyond
The man that I was then, and now
The ways that I’m falling apart
I’ve been lost and blinded
And I’m out here on my own
We haven’t got a chance
I haven’t got a chance alone
