Panic Defence

Can't say no, let me go, get away
In confidence you let me in, made me prey
Dearly beloved we are gathered today here to remember a
Compassionate soul
Taken before my time, a killer is walking free

Begging, trying to escape, crawling drenched in
Blood of my own innocence
Innocence not considered
Dearly, now departed
Not a bad fuck, but they weren't human
Tried it out, grab a hammer
Claims of a shameful, internal conflict
Strike again, become addicted

Wretched, inhuman, panic defence

Trying to formulate a plan? There's already an out with these
Loopholes of cruelty
Discrimination built into the law

Raise the axe, cut them down
Face the facts, don't hide the crime
Try to insist, plead innocence when the message is clear
Won't shed a tear
You're a fucking coward
Try to insist, plead innocence when the message is clear
Killing through fear
