Viewing lyrics for Reign of Terror by Maniac.

Execution in profusion
The death toll is on the rise
Chancellor of human fury
Thousands more will lose their lives
Terror is commodity
As freedom needs oppression
Heed the words of Maximilien
Or the traitors will destroy
Merciless justice, prompt and severe
Beheading on the guillotine
An entire nation ruled by fear
Obedience is guaranteed
Find the order through the chaos
Desire to kill is evident
Enemies of the Revolution
All of you shall die

Despot of liberty
Stands against the tyranny
Punishment is clemency
Forgiveness is barbaric
Terrorist conciliators
Hanging on insurgency
Vilifying peacekeeper
Prosecuting those who speak
Corrupted king was overthrown
Hypocrisy, these men have shown
Killing, murdering
Those in their way
And now you face your sentence
No trial left for you
Your head will serve as a warning
On the pike they'll stick it to

Watch the guillotine rise
See the fear in his eyes as his head's put in place
Lying with his face to the sky
Staring at the blade, no escape from his fate
Screaming at his downfall, the agony is mutual
Justice waits for no man, including fools and hypocrites
The death that he has handed out gets back to him without a doubt
The Reign of Terror is at an end

Watch the guillotine rise
See the fear in his eyes as his head's put in place
Lying with his face to the sky
Staring at the blade, no escape from his fate
Screaming at his downfall, the agony is mutual
Justice waits for no man, including fools and hypocrites
The death that he has handed out gets back to him without a doubt
The Reign of Terror is at an end
