Fighting Fire With Fire
kill a man who's killed another
for the sake of piece
end his life
for revenge
does it make you feel better
that he's dead?
that this vicious man's life
was brought to an end?
his punishment is his crime
karma, justice, no
revenge, yes
fire with fire
not water or dust
sit him in a chair
needles and restaints
stop his heart
stop his heart
stop
stop
stop
justice is paid
fire with fire
do you feel better now?
