The traitor's mark
|
I see myself through read, dead eyes
|
I make myself this prison
|
For Babylon the time has come
|
This time I'm sure you'll listen
|
|
|
This is the day
|
(A given word)
|
This is the hour
|
(was broken twice)
|
Nothing's forgiven and nothing
|
will even the score
|
|
|
I hold my seed, a perfect hate
|
I make this mask a weapon
|
For every time I lied myself
|
a tenfold to your burden
|
|
|
This is the day
|
(A given word)
|
This is the hour
|
(was broken twice)
|
Nothing's forgiven and nothing
|
will even the score
|
|
|
No morning comes to tie my hands
|
in tired sleep
|
The love I left to die alone
|
is all I keep
|
|
|
My blood is silence in my veins
|
It all ends here
|
The final bond of innocence
|
the last to tear
|
|
|
The last bitter step
|
Through ruins and dirt
|
Only one deed remains:
|
To lay it all at your feet, dead
|
|
|
I mark you red, a traitor's mark
|
I name an "M" for malice
|
For all those years I lived a lie
|
One pound of flesh from your body
|
|
|
This is the day
|
(A given word)
|
This is the hour
|
(was broken twice)
|
Nothing but ashes to mourn for
|
|
|
I have betrayed
|
all that I am
|
Nothing's forgiven and nothing
|
will even the score
|
