	作词 : Exodus
	The prison system, inherently unjust and inhumane
	Is the ultimate expression of injustice and inhumanity in the society at large.
	Those of us on the outside do not like to think of wardens and guards as our surrogates, yet they are.
	And they are intimately locked in a deadly embrace with their human captives behind prison walls.
	By extension, so are we.
	The terrible double meaning is thus imparted to the original question of human ethics "Am I my brother's keeper?"
	The second of
	February, 1980
	Began three days of misery
	A scene of retaliation
	Epitomizing violence, horror, and vindication
	Thieves, murderers, and rapists
	Inundated their prison like homicidal sadists
	Convict and guards alike would pay the price
	To them the electric chair would look like paradise
	Only degradation, torture, and cremation would suffice [chorus]
	A sea of agony rolled in like the coming of the tide
	The more fortunate escaped the insanity through suicide
	The screams of the dying would haunt the living to the grave
	Survivors of the riot relive the nightmare every day
	The last act of defiance
	With a never-ending appetite
	Barbiturates set them off like dynamite
	Eradicating informants
	Acetylene torches dealt the punishment
	Melted from skin to bone
	The fire silenced their screams to moans
	Smoke filled the air from bodies set aflame
	Begging for mercy, but their words were spoken in vain
	They weren't allowed to perish until they cherished all the pain [chorus]
	Guards they had taken hostage
	Were to blame for pushing them over the edge
	Their brutality would be their demise
	Like sharks in a frenzy they lashed out at their prize
	When the madness had ended
	The gore was too intense to be comprehended
	No one explained the real reason why
	For cruelty of a few, so many should die
	They knew of the flaws, but still insist the cause was justified [chorus]
