Tom Hulce - Out There [From The Hunchback of Notre Dame]

Swans - The Beggar

Time: 6:28

I swallow liquid from a river fed by the sewage of the cruel
My love is purified, but reeking of your calumny endured
My feet are bruised and torn and leaking, but lead me towards a silver shore

Exhumed - Death Revenge

From this calumny there's no escape
A lifetime of work that may all go to waste
