lyrics

The law gave me no recourse
Now I take it in my hands
Your penance taken by force
No ultimatum, no demands

An eye for an eye
A limb for a limb
I cry for a cry
Your skin for her skin

And when I found her there,
With all you had done,
A demon tore through me,
The law I lived was gone

All I see
Within this rhythmic madness
Crimson sea
My soul, your skull, mere fragments

A simple child
A life defiled

No creeping doubt
Dare interrupt this
Visceral act
And so I claim my justice

A lifeless husk, the mark of monsters
I linger with you, the father of two corpses

All bear witness, to the sentence I gave
I settle on the stones, in this our shallow grave
