Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

I pray that soon the blessed meek their world shall inherit

Expresses hope for a time when the humble and gentle will inherit the world.

When all of these bastards are judged by their merits

Desire for justice where wrongdoers are judged solely based on their actions.

And called to account for the acts they've commited

Call for holding accountable those responsible for their committed actions.

The jury their victims, no sins are omitted.

Emphasizes that victims serve as the jury, with no sins of the perpetrators overlooked.


I'd gladly burn these men of straw who beat the weakest hardest

Expresses a willingness to punish those who harm the weakest in society.

They sow the seeds of misery, let children reap the harvest

Highlights how the actions of these individuals create suffering that affects innocent children.

The "lowest of the low" are they, not fit to share our planet

Deems these individuals as the worst, unfit to coexist on Earth.

They are not men but beasts indeed, so take this beast and hang it.

Portrays them as more akin to beasts than humans and suggests a harsh punishment.


Suffer the children, unseen and unheard

Sheds light on the suffering of children who endure unseen and unheard in traumatic situations.

Who live in the dark closets where skeletons stirred

Describes the hidden suffering and emotional turmoil experienced by these children.

Behind mental parapets feelings lay hidden

References the suppression of emotions and feelings in these unfortunate children.

They cried out for nothing, and nothing were given.

Despite their pleas and needs, they receive no help or support.


Why is it so hard to comprehend

Rhetorical question pondering why it's difficult for society to understand the need to prevent repeat offenses.

They should not be released to re-offend?

Advocates for preventing the perpetrators from repeating their crimes.

I think instead that they should take the place

Suggests substituting these wrongdoers for animals used in scientific experiments.

Of the animals dissected by this so called "Human Race."

Criticizes the actions of the human race in its treatment of animals.


The time has come to take these scum and set a fine example

Advocates for setting an example by punishing these individuals.

The only problem is, I fear no punishment is ample

Expresses doubt about whether any punishment would be sufficient for their crimes.

Now I am not a violent man, but it would give me pleasure

Admits a desire for retribution despite not being naturally inclined toward violence.

To watch these vermin crucified (then kill them at my leisure).

Extreme wish for the punishment of these wrongdoers, even suggesting a violent act.


They rob the young of innocence and then show no repentance

Accuses the perpetrators of stealing the innocence of the young and lacking remorse.

We should relieve them of their lives, the crime befits the sentence

Suggests the severity of their crimes warrants the forfeiture of their lives.

Instead set free to hurt again for reasons I can't figure

Expresses confusion about why they are released despite the high likelihood of repeating their crimes.

Just line them all against the wall and let me pull the trigger.

Extreme desire to eliminate these wrongdoers as a solution to prevent further harm.
