Ill Effect Lyrics

Mistaken identity, fooled us all
And didn't you know
Took betrayal in your stride
Used to biding time
Manipulated her - now on you she must rely
Yet she chose to look away
Look away - from too many lies

And when you come face to face
You will become what you created

From these souls that you sold
Life's avenger will reap the rewards
Through a justice unseen

And what you gave will return
Through these ruins fate will follow

In submission - no escape
You will abide to the work of your own hands
Reformed destiny
Taken this life, not to lay it to rest
When you've taken this life
Then you'll move onto the next

Willing victim to fall to this appeal
When you play a part
Carefully chosen in line to survive

As you live out your promises
Forged promises
Where does your conscience reside
When you have carved
This same future in other lives
Realisation falls silently over
But you know they have come
Too far, too far to look back

Your hour is gaining quickly
Not too soon for those who wait
To see now death becomes you
How death becomes you

And when you've taken this life
Your time will come around
