300 To Life

歌詞

It was 1994 A boy about seven years old That's the last time he was seen And still to this day, he's missing They say that he's still alive Others believe he died inside Was a wolf in sheep's skin Who manipulated his way in He always knew to never talk to strangers But it's different when it's your neighbor It wasn't his fault, he did nothing wrong But no one ever looked because the boy was never really gone A man of God who lived behind an icon Lived a life of fraud which made him not a man at all Thought he'd never get caught but I got that solved It was always my problem but never my fault How could anyone's mind be so fucking sick? How could anyone hurt a little fucking kid? How could anyone do what this monster did? Well payback's a bitch, yeah, payback's a bitch Years later, the boy would come to find himself Share the secret he thought he'd never fucking tell He would get his chance to send the bastard to hell Well he got his chance, the gavel slammed, and guilty is the man There the devil stands with bible in hand He can't look the boy in the eyes He was a fool to think that God was on his side The judge decides his sentence: 300 years to life A man of God who lived behind an icon Lived a life of fraud which made him not a man at all Thought he'd never get caught but I got that solved It was always my problem but never my fault What saved my life was the lives that I've saved Without you or anyone ever knowing I locked up the monster and threw away the key That opened the door and set me free This is how the story goes I'm the only one that knows For a world that's too blind to see Well that boy, that boy is me Now I can breathe And now I can speak How the tables have turned Now you've got time to think About every fucking thing You ever did to me You wanted to pray After every single sin But your prey was just a kid You're such a fucking pig You're the reason I hate You'll never see the light of day You'll die and rot in that cage Puts a smile on my face A man of God who lived behind an icon Lived a life of fraud which made him not a man at all Thought he'd never get caught but I got that solved It was always my problem but never my fault What saved my life was the lives that I've saved Without you or anyone ever knowing I locked up the monster and threw away the key That opened the door and set me free
