Heathen - Mercy Is No Virtue lyrics

[Altus/Piercy/White]

Rip the pages from the book of lies

Never will we ever fall to compromise

Now we're back to set the record straight

Fueled by anger, our pain has turned to hate

Symptoms of stagnation are coming to an end

Solitude's frustration has been our only friend

Now we must break free.

Mercy is no virtue when the mercyful is betrayed

There must be some kind of justice before it's too late

Right at you straight between the eyes

This relentless attack will be no disguise

Things have been said that just are not true

Hear what I say when I say this to you

Symptoms of stagnation are coming to an end

Solitude's frustration has been our only friend

Now we must break free.

Mercy is no virtue, that's what the merciless say

When justice is lost, the system fails, and all we do is pay

Take a look around, 'cause the band is back in town

And vengeance and revenge is what they seek

If you see them coming you better step aside

Because now they'll show no mercy

You can see it in their eyes

Because mercy is no virtue
