Devil's Virtue

Hear me shriek and hear me scream All you listen to my dream Let me tell you what is right Who to praise and who to fight None that stray should stay alive On your vindictiveness I thrive Goddess of virtue for mercy pleads Then with cruelty strikes her enemies I am justice, you're depraved Challenge me to dig your grave Listen closely, believe my eyes Not your own, they're telling lies Up is evil, down is good Strike them for me as you should Hell laughs every time I cry Those who disagree should die!
