Death Penalty
Democratic nations continue executing murderers,
Innocents youths and victims of racist justice
The death penalty doesn´t deter, doesn´t satisfy,
Doesn´t add up - all is does is kill!
I feel the noose get tight
Feel the injection needle
The gas is choking me
O god, my flesh is burning
I´m alone in a cell, doctor checked, I´m alive and well
Got a lunch a la carte, ´cos tonight I´m going to hell
Four long years they´ve been killing me
Every day hope and desperation
Will it be today? Did I get a stay?
I´m guilty...does it help to pray...no, no, I´m innocent
Refrain:
Death penalty
On death row, I´m dead but still alive
Death penalty
What´s it like, when every day´s your last?
Manic, crazy, wired, hopeless, crying, tired
Prison personnel always wear a smile
Priest tells me "Son, this is the best way"
If God´s love then why crucify?
Blinded by the flesh of the media
A final portrait of the beast before the slaughter´s one
Refrain:
Death penalty
On death row, I´m dead but still alive
Death penalty
What´s it like, when every day´s your last?
Manic, crazy, wired, hopeless, crying, tired
Prison personnel always wear a smile
Shaven clean, electrodes sucked tight
Want to scream, but I´m paralyzed
Electricity tearing through my veins
The pain is ripping me apart, but I´m not dead just yet
Refrain:
Death penalty
On death row, I´m dead but still alive
Death penalty
What´s it like, when every day´s your last?
Manic, crazy, wired, hopeless, crying, tired
Prison personnel always wear a smile
Refrain:
Death penalty
On death row, I´m dead but still alive
You don´t now what´s it like, when every day´s a death penalty
