Locked in rusting chains

Having no longer a say

"All that is good,"

They pronounce,

"Must stay"

Never looking your way

Hands covered in blood

Not sure if you would

Be considered "good"

They pass you by

Your hands tied tight

Giving the man of good morals a nod

And letting him free

Of his chains

You bow your head and think

"When did my heart

Meld into this bad and evil

That brought me down this path"

It started with justice

What thought good in intention

Ended in chains wrapped tight

Around your shirtless torso

Digging into to you

For all the evil you do

"All those who are evil in heart,"

They pronounce,

"Come forth and let us tear it apart"

The evil you've done

Drags you down before

A cruel man

Who deserves this more than you

As he rips out your heart

Without a thought of just

And no incline that he cared

About another life lost

On the road to morality
