With Slander for a Blade |
Why is malice on my mind tonight? |
The wine and meat I eat |
Can’t touch this hunger that is flaring |
Still the air turns to heat |
I’m fixed upon my knife |
I’m blinded by its glare |
A candle lights your mockery |
The wakening my wrath |
All common decency is draining from me listening to your laugh |
I’ve a taste for blood against your casual affairs |
Folly, this is folly for the joy that it brings is fleeting |
Each night outside my window, I see them work |
Observe them stalking prey like predators as they talked and flirt |
They melt your mind like wax to steal their haunting display |
For if you do not bite today, you will return rest assured |
Their longing stares will let go on and on around every bend and curve |
Until your home is frost and your band’s in decay |
Folly, this is folly for the joy that it brings is fleeting |
Heaven owns no place for a man that lets his family slip away |
So these lies that I shall take our touring criminals you see |
For with one I slave a hundred, tend a thousand men from spreading their disease |
Now this handle, justice crushes me |
Crushes me |
Go on and dare to glare at me, but I know you’re worse |
For every day you slay the innocent in your thought and word |
And then return to your ground of cliches |
You’re shielded by your forehead, it cloaks your sin from sight |
But somewhere lurking deep within the fog is the stalker in the night |
Who strikes down all who descent with slander for a blade |
Folly, this is folly for the joy that it brings is fleeting |
Can you condemn another man’s sin without adding to it? |
