|
Slamming the door |
|
That echos through the cellblock |
|
Nothing can I see |
|
Guilty until proven innocent |
|
Never again to be free |
|
Deathrow is like one bullet in an empty gun |
|
Pull the trigger |
|
Hanging by a thread |
|
So quiet I hear my thoughts aloud |
|
Hate getting stronger |
|
It's been so long |
|
Since I've heard a human voice |
|
Isolated |
|
It's been years since I've seen the light of day |
|
Slightly demented |
|
Memories die Bad blood flows |
|
The love of man is gone |
|
Emptiness reminds you well of the things that must |
|
Come to end Come to end |
|
[Bridge:] |
|
The tears I cry The blood I bleed |
|
The hell I feel The hate within |
|
I stand alone Not always proud |
|
But on my own Nobody at me side |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Silence so loud |
|
I am innocent |
|
I scream over and over |
|
But no one hears me |
|
I am the victim of a witch hunt |
|
Oh god help me |
|
I fear the truth won't be found |
|
Locked up key thrown away |
|
I'll be dead before they discover |
|
I've been accused falsely |
|
Darkness Silence |
|
My only friend |
|
Solitary confinement |
|
Is where I'll be until I'm dead |
|
[Bridge / Chorus] |
|
Lady Justice can you help me |
|
I am indigent and can't pay your price |
|
What about innocent 'til proven guilty |
|
Or is it reserved for those with money and might |
|
Is being poor punishable by law |
|
While the rich plead guilty and go free |
|
Only in the land of milk and honey |
|
Can justice be sold from sea to shining -- |
|
[Chorus] |
