Lyrics

Here stands the accused Bring her before the bench Her shrunken figure belies the carnage that she creates Persistent images of a savage assault Have been brought before you today Let not the fear in this charlatans eyes Be the forced that compels your will to be swayed Disregard the evidence Behold this evil in deceiving form Her tears an affront to the life she claimed Do not mistake this hollow display For remorse or shame Oh, children Are you not aghast At the sight of this woman Who broke your home The court has witnessed this basest betrayal Of a mother to brood whom she called her own So if a soul you possess Condemn her to death Tear down my defenses Leaving me without an opportunity To contest this warped presentation Of the word of law I have seen your so called justice wane And I am present for the fall Standing upon the threshold of the prison gates I wonder if this is how I'll live out my days Hands bound Drowning in the derision of all these degenerate voices An unholy sound You may have heard my name Carried on the whispers of those who defamed me And left me defenseless What else can be said? Cannot allow the fear to remove my humanity Every night spent praying for a painless death My heart My soul Has been imprisoned Without a single piece of evidence To justify this process These walls consume my life The stars The constellations And all the wonders of the night sky Have been stolen from my sight
