Faces of Fear

Lucian Blaque


Before the judge and jury, alone and accused 
Of heinous crimes of passion, battery and abuse 
He put fear in our hearts, in his there was no care 
The victims slain and bloody, stop now he did not dare 

Faces of fear, for which he is the cause 
He draws more strength from the look in their eyes 
Faces of fear, the world is waiting 
The system fuels his disguise 

Young and vulnerable, perfect target for his trade 
Rip the clothes that she is wearing, 
around her neck he makes her call his name. 
Three gone now many more to go, as he walks through the door 
He's free to walk the streets again, 
drops to his knees down on the floor 

Thank God, freedom was granted 
His quest can now continue 
He wants to see 

So, you thinks there's no justice? Hmm, there's justice! 
Let me tell you man, it's in the eyes, and the heart, and the hands. 
And if you know you're right, nobody can tell you you're wrong. 
Not the cops, doctors, lawyers. When you know you're right, 
You feel it. Inside. Yeah! 

Thirteen proved to be, unlucky for his hand 
He's bound and shackled now, he's taken to the stand 
Life imprisonment, death sentence, both choices too good for him 
Take his life the way he stole theirs, chances for this method are slim 

Bang the gavel, turn the key 
No light, no air for him 
He'll no longer see
