Dreams Of Retribution
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Screams echo through the halls
Fingernails dragging down the walls
Broken down, betrayed, abandoned
Never thought you'd see my face again?
Behind barred windows I watch the sky
Not an hour goes by without asking why
Broken down, betrayed, abandoned
Never thought you'd see my face again?
Well, did you?
Plotting my revenge is the only thing keeping me alive
Then they administer the medicine
Straight to my heart
Listen to me! I'm not insane!
Leave me be! Set me free!
In a place so dark that demons fear
I'm rotting away, year after year
You're on the outside, you're laughing at me
One day, you'll pay, you will see
Plotting my revenge is the only thing keeping me alive
Then they administer the medicine
Straight to my heart
Listen to me! I'm not insane!
Leave me be! Set me free!
You made them believe
In the lies that you weave
Now everyone's an enemy
Who to believe?
They shut off the lights
Another sleepless night awaits
Dreams of retribution keep me awake
My vengence will be glorious, victorious
Plotting my revenge is the only thing keeping me alive
Then they administer the medicine
Straight to my heart
Listen to me! I'm not insane!
Leave me be! Set me free!
You will see!
