lament for the condemned

Singer:lord of the lost

my fingers tingle

a sign that doom is due

an avalanche of anguish

engulfing me and you

is this the end or

a brand new misery

the species endangered

who'll die for liberty?

stay strong

rage on and on and on

stay strong

rage on and on

in a perfect world

love leads and peace pursues

in a perfect world

no hopes are abused

lawless detention

wires strapped to your head

memories forbidden

as freedom's for the dead

my fingers obscure

your grotesque demise

my words of insurgence

take on a dreadful guise

stay strong

rage on and on and on

stay strong

rage on and on

in a perfect world

love leads and peace pursues

in a perfect world

each tyrant colludes

they let me hold you

but you're not there

they've dimmed the light

inside your mind

that hallowed soul is elsewhere

i taste the cold truth

tears in your hair

unrecognised

my spirit dies

i'll make them pay my dear

i swear

this is a lament

for the condemned

the partisans

the also-rans

and all our fallen fiends

and friends

oh

i know

the road is hard

on which we roam

in a perfect world

free from such scum

in a perfect world

we'd still be one

stay strong

rage on and on and on

stay strong

rage on and on

stay strong

rage on and on and on

stay strong

rage on and on

and on and on
