Shatter the Cobble Stones



Scream to midnight

And await her response

The moon light distorts you



A vicious display

Of utter human waste

As a petty thief darts into view



Wielding a miniature blade

Pulled by an imputent hand

Smiting an innocent

Laying blood upon the land



Nothing out of the ordinary

An imitated act of shame and greed

Pathetic mugging of a woman

A well deserved punishment shall be agreed



Give chase and take blame

For his covered escape

Do not inform the public

Whispers punished in the laws name



Organs sing

Mourners weep

An innocent today

In unshakable sleep



And the guilty still flees

Though he stills beholds his freedom

Though the facts reveal his existence

The government refuses to believe them



Proof to our simple minds

That good is not always triumphant

The other side often prevails



Opening our eyes to this

Sideshow of escaped criminals

The lies comfort the feelings we share.



Good in short lacks certain things

Ruthlessness and brute force can be tools to our advantage

If we'd only learn such things are not against holy law.
