Lyrics
A Bribe For The Ferryman
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.
Hope is the worst of evils,
for it prolongs the torment of man.
Molten steel through your esophagus,
You must have misread the policy.
We demand loyalty,
And we don't negotiate.
You made a wrong turn,
Into my line-of-sight.
Sadly, im the only one who
will waste my breath on you.
So take in my wrath slowly.
I am an architect of doom
fulminated quisling through and through
This is the day of Judgement.
I swear im not insane,
I'm just starving.
I am not insane,
I'M FUCKING STARVING.
He who does not punish evil commands it to be done.
