Letra de Thank You, Pain

Judge:
So, lowly criminal
Please tell me, how do you plead?

Defendant:
Now, honorable judges, ladies, gentlemen of the jury
Please allow me to present my case

Judge:
Ha! What case can you possibly present
To rip a man from his family, faith, and friends?
Defense?

Defendant:
Listen, before you convict, you see
I never did intend to ruin anything!

Judge:
Intent is a guilty conscience's
White flag against pride
So I find
You guilty of the crimes

Defendant:
I know, although I don't believe
It's not only my afterlife I bereave...

Judge:
Appeals will be denied!

The line of duty calls for enforcement of laws
So you're our property now
Intelligence has failed you somehow
Oh, what a shame that you play this game!

Defendant:
Through senses, what can we explain?
Not joy, not guilt, not pain
Is love the same?
This senseless argument in vain
Erodes my sense of shame
Who's to blame?

Thank you, Pain
God bless Suffering
Thank you, Pain
For preventing me returning to the source again

Judge:
So it shall be!
Now do you see
The error of your ways?
Of rats and men you speak
Standing up tall but you are weak
A smiling thief

We are all murderers, you see
But you let taboo human chemistry
Blind your needs
Love is greed!

Logic won't concede
Think about the statistics you feed
Think before you plead

Defendant:
Through senses, what can we explain?
Not joy, not fear, not pain
Is love the same?
This reckless argument in vain
Erodes my sense of shame
Who's to blame?

Thank you, Pain
God bless Suffering
Thank you, Pain
For preventing me returning to the source again
