Traitor
You stand accused of treason, you offer no good reason
You are a bloody liar, yours is the stake of fire
Say you are innocent, but you be caught and spent
And now you pay the price, for avarice, your vice
Intrigue your sole desire, you sell your wife, your child
You sell your oldest friends, you sell your countrymen
And yet we know your name
Traitor, traitor
And now your face is shown, and so your fate is know
We have discovered you, we have uncovered you
Say you were led astray, fall on your knees and pray
Pity is not for you, we'll make things hot for you
Our hearts we make to harden, for you there is no pardon
For you the spike awaits, upon the traitor's gate
And crows will eat your eyes
Traitor, traitor
Delight we find in you, as we are binding you
You look in vain for friends, you only find revenge
We give you blood and steel, we break you on the wheel
The ones you hope to sell, will send you straight to hell
As we dismember you, we shall remember you
You are abomination, you that betray the nation
You shall take long to die
Traitor, traitor
You are a bloody liar, yours is the stake of fire
Say you are innocent, but you be caught and spent
And now you pay the price, for avarice, your vice
Intrigue your sole desire, you sell your wife, your child
You sell your oldest friends, you sell your countrymen
And yet we know your name
Traitor, traitor
And now your face is shown, and so your fate is know
We have discovered you, we have uncovered you
Say you were led astray, fall on your knees and pray
Pity is not for you, we'll make things hot for you
Our hearts we make to harden, for you there is no pardon
For you the spike awaits, upon the traitor's gate
And crows will eat your eyes
Traitor, traitor
Delight we find in you, as we are binding you
You look in vain for friends, you only find revenge
We give you blood and steel, we break you on the wheel
The ones you hope to sell, will send you straight to hell
As we dismember you, we shall remember you
You are abomination, you that betray the nation
You shall take long to die
Traitor, traitor
