[Verse 1]
Condemnation, tried
Here on the stand with the book in my hand
And truth on my side
Accusations, lies
Hand me my sentence, I'll show no repentance
I'll suffer with pride
[Chorus]
If for honesty you want apologies
I don't sympathise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
[Verse 2]
Condemnation, why?
Because my duty was always to beauty
And that was my crime
Feel elation, high
To know I can trust this fix of injustice
Time after time
[Chorus]
If you see purity as immaturity
Well, it's no surprise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
Condemnation, tried
Here on the stand with the book in my hand
And truth on my side
Accusations, lies
Hand me my sentence, I'll show no repentance
I'll suffer with pride
[Chorus]
If for honesty you want apologies
I don't sympathise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
[Verse 2]
Condemnation, why?
Because my duty was always to beauty
And that was my crime
Feel elation, high
To know I can trust this fix of injustice
Time after time
[Chorus]
If you see purity as immaturity
Well, it's no surprise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
