Depraved

Wretched soul and blackened heart  
Forged from hells breath  
Goodness burned away from the start  
Only emptiness left  
 
A chronic liar with a mind to manipulate  
Destined to self serve  
Selfish desire vision to decapitate  
You get what you deserve  
 
The judge begins to instruct us  
Our minds he tries to persuade  
Sweet revenge of this injustice  
As justice masquerades  
 
Verdict of the violated laws  
And innocence is proclaimed  
The judge left with a broken jaw  
And the reasoning is explained  
 
The jury believed they realized  
The judge was the one who framed  
Religion was institutionalized  
And the executioner was blamed  
 
Tricked by this eternal existence  
We believed a book of lies  
Sacrificing our resistance  
Trapped in a world that denies  
 
Opportunities and the real truth  
Indulge in our temptations  
Tasting life with our sweet tooth  
Unlimited by our imagination  
 
Filled with sin we still ignore  
Forgiveness is a belief away  
Our chaos spurns what's in store  
As we approach judgement day
