Chin to the sky Shoulders straight The scourger stands high Dictating their fate Wails in the void Blood on the street Lives destroyed Torture on repeat Innocent or guilty The whip spares none No trial, no pity All the living, gone Chin to the sky Shoulders straight The scourger stands high Dictating my fate Whip after whip For daring to exist My soul in his grip Too weary to resist

The Scourger
Chin to the sky Shoulders straight The scourger stands high Dictating their fate Wails in the void Blood on the street Lives destroyed Torture on repeat Innocent or guilty The whip spares none No trial, no pity All the living, gone Chin to the sky Shoulders straight The scourger stands high Dictating my fate Whip after whip For daring to exist My soul in his grip Too weary to resist
