Hangman 歌词

Last night I wasn't sleeping I knew it was my last I've just been lying thinking Reliving all my past My family and friends have left My children are all lost And now I'm standing in a death cell As the sands of time fall fast My poor heart it is thumping My head is fit to flood To feel that rope around my neck And know it's there for good I know that I am innocent And no one's understood And now I'm standing on the gallows To be murdered in cold blood We are creatures of darkness Killers of time We are creatures of darkness Bodies in lime Hangman oh hangman How sleepless is your bed I can't believe my own ears My heart is full of lead That you'd apply and get the job Of pulling off my head And leave me kicking in the darkness Splattering the walls with blood Hangman oh hangman You're working in the shade For creatures of the jungle Whose message is displayed In graphic tones of blood revenge All down the civil blade And you're the creasy little monkey Who murders to be paid And in about six minutes time I'll be thrown into the lime By the screws who dug my grave Who never felt the shame Who threw me in still breathing As they covered me with slime And stuck me on a map in the governors office A number with no name We are creatures of darkness Killers of time Creatures of darkness Bodies in lime And as true as I stand here I would wish to be untied To rip those lies clean out your throats That my death might somehow be justified There's no unconsecrated ground In my heart or in my mind I lived and died in a world full of snakes And I'm buried in a vicious lie We are creatures of darkness Killers of time Creatures of darkness Bodies in lime
