Trial By Fire

Shot down in cold blood

Didn't know my name

No-one understood

So I took the blame

Where I left my mark

When the system fell

You were in my grasp

Hid behind your veil

Bound and abused

Branded a liar

I have endured

Trial by fire

Hang me out to dry

I broke every rule

Fell right in your trap

Played me for a fool

Catch you safe and sound

Tried to make you mine

Took this holy vow

Then you crossed the line

Bound and abused

Branded a liar

Falsely accused

Trial by fire

Committed no crime

In my innocence

I have endured

Trial by fire

Life is so cruel and unbearable

I can't let you get in my way

What I need now is a miracle

To get to the end of each day

Burden of guilt

Branded a liar

Whipped and abused

Trial by fire

Committed no crime

In my innocence

I have endured

Trial by fire

Trial by fire

Trial by fire
