Valjean - Nodes Of Ranvier

Hate for hate

I bear corruption in my name

This life brings nothing but disdain

This world a grave filled with disease

On a condemned humanity

Where is your God of love and peace?

He has left me

I spit in the face of compassion

Mercy is for the weak

Kindness, a fairy tale that helps you

Get a good night’s sleep

I have seen humanity’s true form

Wicked, depraved and hellbound

We are corrupt.

Full of deceit

(So filled with) — Hate for hate

Striking back with vengeance

Revenge, my only allegiance

In a world that mocks my existence

God, can you hear your creation?

Surrounded by forces bent on my destruction

They call my name.

Expose my shame

But a voice of comfort, and a face of love

Shattered this cold and callous soul

I’ve seen forgiveness in its trust form

It brought surrender to this internal war

Cleansed forever, from my redemption
