Abdication

(album: Redeemer - 2019)

You stained the ground with my blood
You were everything I'm not
I hear the sound in my head
Flesh ripping across my neck

You poisoned the well
Death just seems to follow me like a cloud
So throw me to the wolves
What are you waiting for?
Put me out of my misery

And the justice is met with an iron fist
And there's no escape
There's no escaping this

A better life was all I wanted
The emptiness just goes in circles
Betrayal never goes forgotten
And the justice is met

Here I stand staring up at the face of Death
Bellowing, he said:

"We have found ourselves at a crossroads
This is beyond my control
What's done is done
For a murderous coward, there's nothing I can do"

You poisoned the well
Death just seems to follow me like a cloud
So throw me to the wolves
What are you waiting for
Put me out of my misery

A better life was all I wanted
The emptiness just goes in circles
Betrayal never goes forgotten
And the justice is met with an iron fist
And there's no escape
There's no escaping this

And the justice is met with an iron fist
And there's no escape
There's no escape
Justice is met with an iron fist
And there's no escape
There's no escaping this
