Road To Perdition

Beware said the righteous man.

Look back to where it all began.

LOOK, what you perceived to be right,

LOOK, what you did is now your blight.

You sought to crush others by your might,

You never fought a righteous fight.

LOOK, oh soulless wretch, at your decision,

It has put you on the road to perdition.
