10 Cease and Decease

In this dreadful moment, I feel the terror
An innocent who fell in this trap
Going through my own armageddon
I'm on the verge of my doom

Lady justice is old, but ain't no blind
It screams for help, but they are unkind
This vile system engulfed in putrid schemes
Nailed to the cross to pay for no sins

Injustice
Without hope
The balance tilts, deceived by their lies

My way out
Cease and decease
I'll stain it all with my own blood

Guilty as charged, in disbelief I curse
From now on, anger keeps me alive
I'm marked with the stains of shame
Hated by the actions I didn't take

The bitter verdict weights like a stone
Life loses its meaning from now on
Looking into the eyes of you all
I'm the one to hold the last speech

"We were confident that right and truth would prevail and I would be
acquitted and we would devote the rest of our lives working to create
a justice system here in the United States.
The guilty verdict has strengthened that resolve.
But as we've discussed our plans to expose the warts of our legal
system, people have said, 'Why bother? No one cares,
the American Civil Liberties Union, Jack Anderson,
and others have been publicizing cases like
yours for years and it doesn't bother anyone."

A public puppet, set to be exposed
One last time, I bring you the truth
Cynics, staring at the show of the clown
The time to leave the stage is right now

All my screams were never to be heard
But a smoking barrel can't be ignored
The final blow will wash it clean
In red you shall dream!

Injustice
Without hope
The balance tilts, deceived by their lies

My way out
Cease and decease
I'll stain it all with my own blood

My way out
Cease and decease

My way out!
