Souls Bound By Corruption

Falling in step by step, They'll never see the end of this lonely trip. Justified murder in an unknown world, The final heartbeat of stories untold. He takes his last breath, And exhales a thick fume of death. He extinguishes the burning the coal, As God will his soul. He's bound by a pledge of greed, To stop the hearts of those who grieve. The Holy deed is done, Beneath satans nearing sun. Crawling to the safety of his soul, He see's this war is fought for gold. Those he trusted, followed blindly, Led him to the Lord, oh so kindly. Speaking in tones of coveting, They condemned all their brothers, killed all the free. All in the name of the Savior, There lies the final Martyr.
