Guilty as Sin

Your will and resolve have weakened; time has taken its toll
You lay battered and defeated; but you retain your impudence and gall
You tried to shred the memory of martyrs who did not die in vain
And erected monoliths of travesty and tributes to the inane

You brutalised integrity and repute with tongues of spite
You severed the hand of justice claiming divine right
You fed the spellbound masses a cacophony of lies
And vanquished the quill of dissent that sought to open your eyes

You're guilty as sin; deceit will never win
The hour of our vengeance rides on the avenging winds
The dice are played; meet the wrath of the downtrodden
The vice that quelled our freedom is forever broken... Forever broken

You're guilty as sin
Guilty as sin
Sin!

You crushed the zeitgeist of change and the lifeblood of the weak
You weaved webs of privilege and power and trampled the meek
You killed the joy of laughter; you created generations without soul
You caged the defiant and conjured a culture of thought control

You're guilty as sin; deceit will never win
The hour of our vengeance rides on the avenging winds
The dice are played; meet the wrath of the downtrodden
The vice that quelled our freedom is forever broken... Forever broken

You're guilty as sin... You will never win
Guilty as sin!
