Judgment Without Mercy by Obituary Pending
Judgment Without Mercy
[Intro – Ominous Chant]
Hear the gavel fall…
See the shadows rise…
No one escapes…
No one survives…
[Verse 1]
The walls are blackened, the floor is cold,
I hear a thousand voices, crying and old.
Chains rattle softly, a dirge for the damned,
I feel the weight of sins I cannot withstand.
Figures in robes, their faces unseen,
Eyes like embers, cruel and keen.
Every lie, every betrayal, every secret kept,
Is counted against me, and my soul is wept.
[Pre-Chorus]
Time stands still in this hollow hall,
Every heartbeat echoes the final call.
[Chorus]
Judgment without mercy, relentless and cold,
No soul forgiven, no tale retold.
The gavel crashes, the fires ignite,
Condemned forever to endless night.
Judgment without mercy, I fall, I bleed,
The price of my sins, the darkness decreed.
[Verse 2]
I see the shadows of those who came before,
Their screams are the keys to the iron door.
Every step I take, the floor cracks and moans,
Every breath I draw, I face it alone.
The jury of darkness, the sentence is clear,
No mercy will soften the edge of fear.
I beg, I plead, I cry out in vain,
But judgment has spoken—only terror remains.
[Pre-Chorus]
The chains of the guilty rattle and grind,
I feel the wrath of the court of the blind.
[Chorus]
Judgment without mercy, relentless and cold,
No soul forgiven, no tale retold.
The gavel crashes, the fires ignite,
Condemned forever to endless night.
Judgment without mercy, I fall, I bleed,
The price of my sins, the darkness decreed.
[Bridge – Dark, Ritualistic]
Ashes swirl where the innocent lie,
Shadows feast on the scream and sigh.
No prayer can save you, no god will defend,
The sentence eternal, without end.
I see the faces of those I betrayed,
Their eyes accuse me in the judgment made.
Every secret, every sin, every crime,
Is carved in the book of the endless time.
[Verse 3]
I feel the fire crawling beneath my skin,
I hear the drums of the reapers’ din.
The walls close in, the darkness speaks,
I am undone, my spirit leaks.
Mercy is absent, hope is a lie,
The gavel falls, and I cannot deny.
The final word echoes, chilling and stark,
And I am swallowed by eternal dark.
[Chorus – Final, Intensified]
Judgment without mercy, relentless and cold,
No soul forgiven, no tale retold.
The gavel crashes, the fires ignite,
Condemned forever to endless night.
Judgment without mercy, I fall, I bleed,
The price of my sins, the darkness decreed.
[Outro – Whispered Doom]
Hear the gavel fall…
See the shadows rise…
No one escapes…
No one survives…
Judgment… without mercy…
