Condemned Lyrics

We all are, to a man, to this condemn'd:
To fall to shame, all dignity bereft
Slavering curs, our teeth baréd to rend
What awe remain'd among us unto death
I sought to walk in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and winsome starry skies
But callous calumnies douséd the light
Plunging to blackness all I could espy
They say that in the soul of judgement's eye
Resides the greater portion of sin
But more among us quicken to despise
Without casting our gaze to scry within
Thus I am driven swiftly to my end
As all the bloodied earth cries for revenge
