Eminent domain (United States, the Philippines), compulsory purchase (United Kingdom, New Zealand, Ireland), resumption (Hong Kong), resumption/compulsory acquisition (Australia), or expropriation (South Africa, Canada, Brazil) is the power of a state or a national government to take private property for public use. However, it can be legislatively delegated by the state to municipalities, government subdivisions, or even to private persons or corporations, when they are authorized to exercise the functions of public character.
The property may be taken either for government use or by delegation to third parties, who will devote it to public or civic use or, in some cases, to economic development. The most common uses of property taken by eminent domain are for government buildings and other facilities, public utilities, highways, and railroads. However, it may also be taken for reasons of public safety, as in the case of Centralia, Pennsylvania. Some jurisdictions require that the condemnor make an offer to purchase the subject property, before resorting to the use of eminent domain.
No one makes it out alive
But I know where the killer hides tonight
No one makes it out alive
But I know where the killer hides
I saw this night and the next
Off to flames four years ago
This gurney like roaches
Stomped out by fire
I warned the insects not to move
But none one ever listens
Don't believe this girl
She preaches mayhem
She's the devils bitch and a liar
I want to see the look her in eyes
When her body parts ways with life
No one listens to the damned
No one listens to the damned
I've searched miles
All of it will explode, I can see it all
No one listens to the damned
I've seen another human drowned, I have seen it all
No one listens to the damned
Greeting the circus, the monster will have him
No one listens to the damned
God damn, no one will believe me.
