Traitor Lyrics


You stand accused of treason, you offer no good reason
You are a bloody liar, yours is the stake the fire
You say you are innocent but you be caught and spent
And now you pay the price for avarice, your vice
Intrigue your sole desire, you sold your wife, your child
You sell your oldest friends, you sold your countrymen
And yet we know your name
Traitor, traitor
And now your face is shown and so your fate is known
We have discovered you, we have uncovered you
You say you were led astray, fall on your knees and pray
Pity is not for you, we'll make things hot for you
Our hearts we make to harden, for you there is no pardon
For you the spike awaits upon the traitors gate
And crows will eat your eyes
Traitor, traitor
Delight we find in you as we are binding you
You look in vain for friends, you only find revenge

We give you blood and steel, we break you on the wheel
The ones you hope to sell will send you straight to Hell
As we dismember you, we shall remember you
You are abomination, you that betray the nation
You shall take long to die
Traitor, traitor
