They Called Him a Righteous Man

They called him a righteous man.
They called him a right righteous man.
But was he a righteous man?
He did things one can't understand.
He had the law in his hand.
Was he a righteous man?
Doing what he did could never be forgiven.
The things he did to them could never be forgiven.
No one would ever believe that could be the enemy.
No one would ever believe that could be the enemy.
Evil behind a badge and a desk.
Dark thoughts and deeds in his chest.
This wasn't a righteous man.
What he did to little girls in the dark.
To those that no one should harm.
This wasn't a righteous man.
Doing what he did could never be forgiven.
The things he did to them could never be forgiven.
Doing what he did could it be forgiven? The things he did to them could never be forgiven.
