Justitia

Where are you lady Justice
Why have you gone away
The crooked laws have twisted
And we're the ones who pay.

Where are you lady Justice
In you we held our faith
All innocents are criminal
Sent to contemplate their deaths.

Where were you Lady Justice
When we raped the world for gain
Fortuna, Tyche and Nemesis
The triple symbol of pain

Justitia
Abandon all hope
Justitia
Abandon all hope

Where are you lady Justice
Your scales a Judas cradle
You shoved your morals down our throats
With your treacherous betrayal

Where are you Lady Justice
No duty or obligation
guiltless and oblivious
in your selfless escalation

Where were you Lady Justice
When we raped the world for gain
Fortuna, Tyche and Nemesis
The triple symbol of pain
luck, fate and vengeance
Skulking in the shadows of shame.

Justitia
Abandon all hope
Justitia
Abandon all hope!

This is excellent. There is no person who can judge another in a just way. Justice is a suggestive idea, depending on who has the more clever lawyer. There is no Justitia.
