Loyal Wife - Culprit
Where’s the golden book you hide
That you say you prophesied
I’m not a savior or an alibi
I need the former not the later kind
Where’s the stone that bends your eye
You say you read it line by line
And I’m not educated or divine
Took 90 days without a proper scribe
Culprit, let the truth confound the wise
Tar and feather whip and chain
Scar me for the rest of my life
Chip my tooth and slur my speech
But I will speak up every time
I’m like the lamb I’ll go to slaughter when it’s time
So how culpable am I
Exonerated of my crimes
I’m never guilty brother
Anywhere you preside
I’m like the lamb I’ll go to slaughter when it’s time
200 cowards painting faces in the night
Something is missing in your life
If you need mine
Culprit
An unnecessary crime at a necessary time
Carthage
Culprit
An unnecessary crime
Hear them gathering outside
Cause a martyr has to die
Of an unnecessary crime
Culprit.
