lyrics

Prison tattoo's mean little to you, but can stain a Father's Soul
For three long years, kept the dirt from his ears, stabbed a guard they put him deep in the hole
He drinks deep from his glass
Swallows hard his sordid past
Justice for a life that he stole

Remorse can blight with restless nights, but it never bothered Brother Mind
Touch of white powder, to sharpen the prowler, he's got another young victim to find
He sees her from a far
Leads her on and out the bar
Gagged, bound, taken by a beast unkind

Not all scars will shine like stars, so the spark had gone from sweet Miss Heart
Just thirty days is all crime has to pay, so the father meets the beast in the dark
For he did rape his daughter
Like a lamb he led her to slaughter
He tore his fucking throat apart
