When Mercy Bleeds
[Verse 1]
Patience worn thin, kindness abused
A gentle soul, repeatedly bruised
Years of restraint, now coming undone
The fuse is lit, nowhere to run

[Pre-Chorus]
You pushed too far, crossed the line
Mistook my mercy for weakness divine
Now witness the fury you've unleashed
The monster you've created, unchained and released

[Chorus]
Beware the anger of a good man!
When virtue turns violent, there's no mercy at hand
Blood will flow like rivers, bones will crack and break
Hell hath no fury like the vengeance I'll take

[Verse 2]
Compassion turned to rage so cold
A righteous inferno, sight to behold
Justice perverted becomes savage and cruel
You'll wish for death as I break every rule

[Pre-Chorus]
You thought you knew pain, you've seen nothing yet
Each wound I inflict, a lifetime of regret
Your screams are music, your suffering my art
I'll tear you apart, with joy in my heart

[Chorus]
Beware the anger of a good man!
When virtue turns violent, there's no mercy at hand
Blood will flow like rivers, bones will crack and break
Hell hath no fury like the vengeance I'll take

[Bridge]
Years of kindness, burnt to ash
Morality crumbles with each vengeful lash
You've awakened a beast you can't hope to tame
Your torment, my pleasure; your agony, my aim

[Chorus]
Beware the anger of a good man!
When virtue turns violent, there's no mercy at hand
Blood will flow like rivers, bones will crack and break
Hell hath no fury like the vengeance I'll take

[Outro]
In the end, as you draw your last breath
Remember the lesson you've learned in your death
The gentlest souls hide the darkest of rage
Beware the good man, when fury's unleashed from its cage
