WITHOUT MERCY Lyrics - Maria K. Glass / Music - Philip Wolfe

Without Mercy . . . Without Mercy

Premonition of evil, there’s fear in the air
Sense of forboding
You must beware

Terror spreads like wildfire
It’s danger to speak the wrong way
Questions with no right answers
You could face your death today

Hear the clock striking from the tower
Announcing the death of another hour

There is no free thinking
Where there is opposition
And there is no escape
From the Inquisition

Without Mercy . . . awash in blood
Without Mercy . . . becomes a flood

If you don’t believe their reality
Expect torture to the brink of sanity

Without Mercy . . . awash in blood
Without Mercy . . . becomes a flood

Hear the clock striking from the tower
Announcing the death of another hour

There is no free thinking
Where there is opposition
And there is no escape
From the Inquisition

The evil one, he’s right by their side
Condoning the genocide
Your feelings won’t make him sway
It’s no good for you to pray

You tell them what they desire
Hold your feet above the fire
They demand your compliance
Validate their alliance

Your corrupt church has thrown you away
You’ve been accused of heresy
Damn your soul through eternity
Your God is without mercy
