Who are you to judge
Who are you to hold a grudge
Against something you don't know
It hurts - the stones you throw
You are merciless
Your killings are endless
Your words are like a deadly venom
You build your own sad little kingdom
There were times that you were good
But then I realise - so is food
Both are good until you get too much
Death comes with just one deadly touch
Your heart is like winter - cold
I have been warned, I have been told
In you I wanted to see the good
But you were dark and dressed in a hood
Now my eyes have seen the truth
You have stolen my youth
You drained me of my life
You promised me - I was safe
I will no longer listen to your lies
Your soulless and deadly cries
I'll turn my back and walk away
It changes all forever - today
