I stare at the void
Fate's out of my hands
Standing in chains
I can't understand
My innocence clear
I can't catch my breath
Declaring my judgement
I'm sentenced to death

Assassination
One eye-witness to a crime
Accusation
Evil face they say is mine
Contradiction
Claim of whereabouts untrue
Confinement
Held for what I didn't do

Freedom revoked, feeling choked
Psuedo-science in a lawless alliance

Testified, still bound to die
Crucified, an abhorrent lie
Criminal, they won't hear
Indicted by the crooked seer
The gavel cracks

(Dwell) in my stone cage
(Cry out) untold rage
The justice not served
Incarceration preserved



Slaughterer
Forever in the public mind
Tarnished
The preconception won't unwind
Insomnia
I lie awake and curse the law
Determination
To walk free once more

My new mission
To see the day, and tell the tale of my plight
Abolition
For my pain, and my existence out of sight

Opposition
To the final say, lacking the power to redefine
Break the silence
To break the chains, these words are mine

Get me out!

(Dwell) in my stone cage
(Cry out) untold rage
The justice not served
Incarceration preserved
(Dead end) to dead end
(Solitary) to me send
The justice not served
Incarceration preserved
