As I kneel before the guillotine
I defy you 'til the end
I never conformed to your world in life
And I will not now in death
In the past I cast my pearls before swine
And only now I know
The most brilliant stars are so deep in space
Their light never reaches Earth
Some would say my actions bold
And name me arrogant
To them I say 'You're wrong you fools'
You condemn the innocent
It is a mortal shame you cast your blame
On a man who shows you light
Biting the hand that feeds you truth
You will choke on your own fright
In exile
I bid my time
My will is stronger now
Than I've ever known
In exile
I found my mind
I swear I'll return
Vengeance will be mine
Tiny slivers of the truth
Are buried in their lies
Sometimes so deep in the abyss
They're impossible to find
Castigation overwhelms
And robs a fertile mind
Poison looks and vile words
Are returned ten fold in time
In hand pitch fork and flaming torch
They're screaming out my name
At them I point and laugh and yell back
'Your minds have gone insane'
Then leaping from the scaffold
I clutch a passing horse's mane
I ride off into the netherworld to return some other day
In exile
I did my time
My will is stronger now
Than you've ever known
In exile
I found my mind
I have returned
Vengeance is now mine
