Vilified Lyrics by Stringstorm

Songs from 2019 to 2020

2020

I am but a shadow that rests on a home;
I’ve heard pleading objections, to my heart of stone
I once knew of love, of light, and of hope
Then found the place where all good things go (to die)

For every burden, there is someone to bear it
Behind the greater good, there’s sins we commit
Your fragile worlds need a source of blame to ascribe
But there are evils, that can’t be described

When all of this blinding lack of faith arises, we’re intertwined
Your life weighed against that of mankind-
To call it a hard choice, would be a lie


The death of innocence is but necessity;
If you abhor the thought, you’re welcome to your fantasy
If those beside you bear witness to the darkness of life
Then for the greater good, stand beside them; when called to die

Under Imperium, we’re all His children;
Who wouldn’t gladly die for the sake of their kin?
It takes a pure soul to cling tight to faith as they die
But to kill for Him… is something only the strong abide

And that’s something no child should have be put through-
I cross the line for your sake; so you don’t have to
But if that child shall ever even think to stray from the path
They’ll know no mercy- they’ll be purged with unhesitant wrath

All of the ends we prevent, yet somehow we are the ones you vilify
If you’d seen what I’d seen, you’d be devastated; you’d be terrified
So hope for redemption gifted here by the hands of a better man;
Know that my blood-stained palms, will only ever care for a greater plan

And if that’s what it takes…
Then no cost is too great
