The Murderers Pact - Cannibal Corpse Lyrics

Coercion and threats
Made their demands
Held the past over my head
One mistake has made me their tool
Blackmailing a means to the end, I'm forced into the pact
Murderer
Is this what I am?
Homicide
How can I stop this?
Not a violent man but now I'm forced to kill
Seems to be no other way
Trapped by an accident, tragic and fatal
The crime was unintentional, but this I cannot prove
Murderer
Is there no way out?
Suicide
Is that the answer?
Desperation
Deal has been made
No turning back
I'm bound to kill by the murderer's pact
Steel myself for the task at hand
Preparing the tools that I need
Sharpen the blades, make the kill quick
Extortion drove me to the deed, I take from it no joy
Murderer
Now I will do this
Homicide
I have made my choice
Sins of the past
Haunt me today
Should have confessed
Motive concealed
Undetected
Hunting him down
His life will end
I'm bound to kill by the murderer's pact
Thrust of the blade repulses
Commit the heinous crime
Stabbing him repeatedly
Gouge his neck, slash his face
See his look of terror
He knows his time has come
Cannot show him mercy
Make him die, finish it
Blood on the knife
His body slumps
Corpse left to rot
The deed is done
But in my mind
There is no peace
Two dark secrets
That I must keep
I'm bound to kill by the murderer's pact
