... years later: The day of his judgement is now certain. The execution of a fellow inmate inflames his hate towards the prison and guards ...
|
|
The sun rises, the light is warm and bright
|
Another inmate soon will lose his life
|
One more day, one more night, that's all
|
For sure he'll meet his murderers at dawn
|
|
Now they are here to kill another man
|
The Strap-down Team, I call them the hangmen
|
One cell is left forever and I know
|
It's killing time on death row!
|
In my hour of death, I wish I'm not alone
|
You are doing wrong, this law is heresy
|
IN MY HOUR OF DEATH, I WISH I'M HERE NO MORE
|
IT'S MY ONLY HOPE; THAT'S WHAT I'M FIGHTING FOR
|
|
The sun goes down, his last night has begun
|
He has to say good-bye to wife and son
|
He had hope, the pardon on his mind
|
But the governor he never signs
|
|
There's still a light that shines across the yard
|
Working men, playing all their part
|
The death house awaits the ceremony
|
Who is next? It could be me!
|
|
In my hour of death, I wish I'm not alone ...
|
|
Is there hope? Is there life?
|
Or will I follow him into the night?
|
... rejected and killed ...no,... not me !!!
|
|
Red light, glowing sky at dawn
|
Right now he fights the fight that can't be won
|
They're taking time, they're doing their duty
|
The job is done responsibly
|
|
Minutes, days, lifes are passing by
|
Another inmate, now, has lost his life
|
When prisoners mourn and one man had to go
|
It was killing time on death row!
|
|
In my hour of death, I wish I'm not alone ...
|
