Oh once upon a time
I had to pay for a crime
The act and sins of which weren’t mine
I was a victim of chance
Catching the wolves’ harsh glance
Facing punishment so divine
“She had a hated face,”
“And such crude distaste,”
“She drew the ire and spite of all…”
“Oh she was far from a saint!”
“Her reputation taint!”
“It was bound she’d take a fall!”
Oh how could they blame me?
For all the misery?
Made with intent and with dark design?
It’s truly sickening
That they’re still listening
To all the lies, and their willful pride…
So was this it for me?
Was this all to see?
Was there nothing else to save?
Am I an after thought?
That had ran their lot?
As they laugh upon my “grave”…
With feelings so distraught
Haven’t you had the thought?
To make the liars and cheaters pay?
For all the wh#res and the hounds
Who had put you down
To have wished they walked away…
Thus it’s with heavy heart
That I will most depart
The deeds that you had left to start
And with a new found glee
I’ll go on this spree
To correct this horrid farce…
So look
And see
What broke
In me
When you tossed
Me in
Your “Machine”
The irony
That you
Made me
Oh you all, had best, believe
So I had played along
Singing your stupid songs
Just for the chance to expose your wrongs
Though you had played up your con
The people all were gone
Your scheme has gone on for too long…
Throughout the whole affair
They would watch and stare
Dismiss the cries for dramatic flare
And it was them who’d dare
Who’d scuff and twirl their hair
Taking the piss without a care…
And so the people assume
That the presumptuous few
Would then have figured out all they knew
But in the end it ain’t true
Through all the gloom out in bloom
It is their bliss that will lead their doom…
So you think you’re so tough?
You old privileged lot?
You think it’s magic, it’s all a game?
Well prance a mile in hooves
Cut off a few of your roots
To see if you endure the same…
They got it…
Surrounded…
With anger…
They hounded…
Their flesh torn…
With new horns…
The scandal…
They adored…
Oh who cares?…
When they dare…
To mess with…
Perfection…
With tears shed…
And hearts bled…
When all was said…
…They were dead
No cure, can heal
The pain I feel
As you shoved
Me out, in the light
And who would die?
To keep, the lies?
That they tell themselves, at night?
I couldn’t articulate
The anger, madness and hate…
Guess I’ll resign myself to this fate…
And I still agonize…
Never apologize…
With matters done it’s far too late…
Trapped in the darkest lair…
It was so unfair!…
Rotting away without due amends…
But in the bitter end…
Through all the loss of my friends…
Oh I would do it all again…
So now, it’s time
To pay, the crime
For the truth, it’s time, to tell
Just me, and you
Two halves, of a few
As I drag, you down, to hell
