I sleep alone and lie awake at night
|
Ponder my wrongs, wonder what was right
|
Was given the word, the one I lived by
|
Was handed a sum without face, by my hand he would die
|
|
Need not act, never cared for forgivness
|
Ask only one, where to look in his eyes
|
Was given word to dish out somewhere
|
And hide the fact he would die with my guise
|
|
When I was done
|
Return for one more
|
To my neighbor
|
Kill his brother without a sense of remorse
|
|
So don't propose
|
This is your calling
|
Even Christ could not keep you alive
|
|
Then I return, back to my home
|
For them I do this
|
While they look at me as a noble
|
Was not an act, to me it was business
|
I never asked if it was even the score
|
The dual life, I kept all in me
|
Through the door, I would put it behind
|
|
Poor little eyes
|
I beg they won't see
|
A man's final breath
|
Or hear the cries as he begs for mercy
|
|
I won't propose
|
This is my calling
|
Even Christ could not keep me alive
|
