Depeche Mode - Condemnation Lyrics

Condemnation, tried here on the stand
With the book in my hand truth on my side
Accusations, lies hand me my sentence
I'll show no repentance I'll suffer with pride

If for honesty you want apologies
I don't sympathize
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes

Condemnation why?
Because my duty was always to beauty
And that was my crime
Feel elation high
To know I can trust this fix of injustice
Time after time

If you see purity as immaturity
Well it's no surprise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
