What’s the purpose of my venom Can it heal and bring redemption Can it make the blind man see The lame man walk, the slave man free? Or will it be my condemnation Black the sun out, cause destruction Only time can write this tale What of those who sought my ending Burned my home and caused my suffering Can I ever justify The vengeful streak inside my mind? Eye for eye and life for life And sting for sting and bite for bite Are we not all crimes of life? And now you’ve spent Your shadow days In gluttony, deceit and rape Perpetuate your misery But I’ll resist, I will be free I ransom the dead I take your spirit I take your guilty lives The way you took the heart of me and called my life a crime I burn your altar With you, the sacrifice You poisoned wretched horror in a fairy tale’s disguise Insipid now I find your words Your stolen prose and foolish verse Yet take my thanks, for now I’m free Acquired my immunity I repurpose crimes
