I often wonder why I sit and wait to die
|
What have I done to justify the sentence they gave?
|
Too many hours spent in darkness questioning...
|
"How and why"?
|
I can't remember many moments in the light
|
This retribution has defiled me to no end
|
And execution without merit looms ahead
|
Tell me why!
|
|
I was a boy who had to live his own way
|
I never fit into the model they had designed
|
I chose a path less taken...
|
I stood with others who had often felt the same
|
We got stares from passersby
|
Our dark attire seemed to frighten people away
|
And when three young boys died
|
They pointed fingers and entangled us in a lie!
|
|
...No hope in sight.....
|
|
I sit here terrified!
|
Can't someone try to bring the truth to light?
|
Won't anybody open up their eyes?
|
Before the three of us have lost our lives!
|
|
Why was everybody so damn afraid?
|
They blamed the devil for the heinousness of the crime
|
And to justify their own faith
|
We were labeled followers of Satan for a time
|
The three of us were attacked and disgraced
|
For many hours we were questioned and someone lied
|
One of us couldn't take it
|
His simple manner was manipulated in time....
|
Fear made him lie....
|
|
Now I sit here terrified!
|
Can't someone try to bring the truth to light?
|
Won't anybody open up their eyes?
|
Before the three of us have lost our lives!
|
|
Now I am terrified!
|
Can't someone try to bring the truth to light?
|
Won't anybody open up their eyes?
|
Before the three of us have lost our lives!
|
|
Can't anybody see through their disguise?!
|
Believe we didn't take their lives!
|
And now the three of us have lost our lives...
|
|
I often wonder why I sit and wait to die
|
What have I done to justify the sentence they gave?
|
Too many hours spent in darkness questioning...
|
"How and why"?
|
I can't remember many moments in the light
|
This retribution has defiled me to no end
|
And execution without merit looms ahead
|
Tell me why!
