The Murderer's Pact

Coercion and threats Made their demands Held the past over my head One mistake has made me their tool Blackmailing a means to the end, I'm forced into the pact

Murderer Is that what I am?

Homicide How can I stop this?

Not a violent man but now I'm forced to kill Seems to be no other way Trapped by an accident, tragic and fatal The crime was unintentional, but this I cannot prove

Murderer Is there no way out?

Suicide Is that the answer?

Desperation Deal has been made No turning back I'm bound to kill by the murderer's pact

Steel myself fot the task at hand Preparing the tools that I need Sharpen the blades, make the kill quick Extortion drove me to the deed, I take from it no joy

Murderer Now I will do this

Homicide I have made my choice

Sins of the past Haunt me today Should have confessed

Motive concealed Undetected Hunting him down His life will end I'm bound to kill by the murderer's pact

Thrust of the blade repulses Commit the heinous crime Stabbing him repeatedly Gouge his neck, slash his face

See his look of terror He knows his time has come Cannot show him mercy Make him die, finish it

[Lead - O'Brien]

Blood on the knife His body slumps Corpse left to rot The deed is done

But in my mind There is no peace Two dark secrets That I must keep I'm bound to kill by the murderer's pact
