Vulture Industries
The Benevolent Pawn
I urged to do good, but somehow
Motives, action and its consequence
Can form absurd chains
I never fully understood but somehow
Somehow these grew taint
Obscured my inner eye
Spawned interior lies
The lies turned to truth in my eyes
Called upon me to commit these deeds
I would consider vile. As if these hands weren't mine
I paused and beheld his dead eyes
And momentarily I glimpsed my distorted I
But, this clearness died
Could I confine my mind
To justify my crime?
Every trivial move could bind
This twisted fate of mine
I tried to conform but these malevolent fingers
These malicious fingers were plotting my doom
I turned the deaf ear but the voices still lingered
And thus my new image continued to bloom
This devilish contraption controlling my fingers
Towards times of chaos and gloom
I urged to do good, but somehow
Motives, action and its consequence
Can form absurd chains
