Sworn in by the stand Your rights are gone The system's banned They think you are a liar A trial by fire Hey! This is what the people say, A new way A trial by fire! Locked in an empty cell Your life becomes a living hell The river of fire flows Time only knows! Trapped by flames of fury Ordered unto by the jury Death is their desire Thrown in the fire! Hey! This is what the people say, A new way A trial by fire! Quiver by the fiery light Cringing as your soul ignites The book of law's been thrown away Starting today! The system before the war Is gone for now and evermore There is no sentence higher A trial by fire! Hey! This is what the people say, A new way A trial by fire!
