From neglect and abuse to the great escape We can mould and size you to a whole new shape Your new life is waiting look behind the door She'll be there beside you while you fight this war We can't blame you, it's your wish But you can't go killing goldfish She reacts and she attaches Burning fingers, lighting matches Medicate her, make her better Not working? Well send a letter Show acceptance, give her flowers Driving west 24 hours 70 minutes here Monsters' smiles from ear to ear Disgustingly obscene Winning chance few and far between She just wanted a life You've taken her from the light She's been thrown in the dark Your future holds that black mark One time for the small kid The little girl that'll never know what life is Taken care of by "America's finest" America's righteous therapists I'm pissed at how she wound up lifeless On a psycho's breath, it was her deathbed She suffocated in a pool of her own tears and sweat She screamed and screamed, and begged and begged And then she sobbed and sobbed until she wound up dead The doctors got off Scott free for murder They killed the kid they were supposed to nurture At ten years old, her life was taken Her name was Candace Newmaker, say it, hey Retribution is mine Stand in single filed lines Winning force for the law Stand in frame bourgeois swords will draw They did not serve their times For unforgivable crimes The church bells will ring Life taken, death will bring And as the seconds of the hour started to tick by I felt the light leave my body as I started to die And I wish that I could say that I found compromise (Compromise!) But I can't crawl my way away from those wicked eyes (WICKED EYES!) 70 minutes here Monsters smiles from ear to ear Winning force for the law Stand in frame bourgeois swords will draw She just wanted a life You've taken her from the light The church bells will ring Life taken, death will bring When was paradise lost? ('I can't breathe through my sobs') When was my comfort gone? ('My innocence was robbed') I was naught but a fawn ('My life, it came with a cost') But now my soul goes on ('My soul goes on') I can't breathe through my sobs My innocence was robbed My life, it came with a cost My soul goes on When was paradise lost? When was my comfort gone? I was naught but a fawn My soul goes on I can't breathe through my sobs My innocence was robbed My life, it came with a cost My soul goes on When was paradise lost? When was my comfort gone? I was naught but a fawn My soul goes on
