Yesterday, I woke up to the handsome demons inside my head naming
Ordinary people as the victims of nine relations to torture
Understanding refers to a type of knowledge that reflects on itself
Rational processes of thought rarely include vengeance as repayment
Mothers, fathers, children all line up as victims for executioners
Other people, other than the perpetrator, end up as the victims
To understand logic is beyond this type of retributive justice
How offenders suffer is by extinguishing all of their relations
Eliminate all points of reference for good relationships to grow
Retributive justice lets the offender know they are now all alone
Success occurs through nine relations of family, friends or business partners
Understanding refers to a type of knowledge that reflects on itself
Consigned to a life of absolute solitude the offender becomes
Killer of his own kind, a pariah of sorts in his community
Success occurs through nine relations of family, friends or business partners
Consider innocence lost as a deterrent for others to do good
Other people, other than the perpetrator, end up as the victims
Consider the harm done to justify the means, the end result is truth
Killing nine relations mortifies the living in light of the offense
Success occurs through nine relations of family, friends or business partners
If this type of sentence is too harsh on others by association
Nothing but compassion, kindness and tolerance is the alternative
Hell is what we offer not as a metaphor but as a brutal fact
Enlist armies to wage war against offenders of the common people
Left alone with demons to reflect on this life becomes repetitive
Left alone with demons to reflect on this life becomes repetitive
