Lullaby of Vengeance - Act of Defiance

A song of daggers, a song of knives

State what matters, bold faced lies

Psalm of revenge, psalm of wrath

Sing your motive, lunatic psychopath

Lost in a lullaby of vengeance, no other soul to be found

Cost of yourself condemning penance, no congregation around

Chant of hatred, chant of contempt

Your stab at friendship, a failed attempt

A hymn of folly, a hymn of spite

Your lunacy, harber your ruthless plight

Chorus of your indignation

In the depths your thoughts dwell

A chanting voice of resentment

The flawed conclusion of your hell

Can’t you listen to all around

Can you feel it?

A stringing slight

Air of closure, air to the end

The final cadence, nothing to condescend

Chorus of your indignation

In the depths your thoughts dwell

A chanting voice of resentment

The flawed conclusion of your hell

Choir sings contempt and loathing

The stifled words you cannot tell

Ballad of emphatic voices, the barren soul of the impaled
