Intruder - T.M. (You Paid The Price) lyrics

rate me

What went on in you head when they told you<br />

Did you think that it was all a lie?<br />

You were leading cattle to the slaughter<br />

You still lived when all around you died<br />

How many lives did it take to convince you -<br />

Did you see that what you did was wrong?<br />

Serving death to the people of the city<br />

Were you so cold you could not see the harm?<br />

<br />

Mary - Mary - oh the blood of a thousand lives stain your hands<br />

Mary - Mary - but you paid the price<br />

<br />

How did you feel when they said you had killed them - did you feel their agony and pain?<br />

Or did you think that they were mistaken - you would never, never kill or maim<br />

You wouldn't let them cut in your body<br />

You thought they were nothing more than fools<br />

When you have to answer to the master<br />

Their souls will avenge themselves on you<br />

<br />

Mary - Mary - oh the blood of a thousand lives stain your hands<br />

Mary - Mary - but you paid the price<br />

<br />

I feel your sorrow, your agony and pain<br />

It's time to weep no more, sentence is over, your debt has been paid<br />

Lay your soul to rest<br />

<br />

Did you finally tire of the running - or did your conscience finally get to you?<br />

Did they get you when you were not looking?<br />

Either way, your game was all through<br />

26 years you were locked from the outside<br />

They slammed the door and threw away the key<br />

You calmly accepted your 'sentence'<br />

For with your death you knew you'd then be free
