A Prayer For The Dying Lyrics

5:01=0A=

=0A=

Living in your cell, your sentence is death=0A=

The chair awaits, take your last breath=0A=

Locked away, for the crime you committed=0A=

Accused of murder, now you'll pay for it=0A=

Don't say you're innocent, after what you've done=0A=

Laughing at death isn't much fun=0A=

Blood on your hands is plain evidence=0A=

A look in your eyes, as if you're in trance=0A=

=0A=

She said I haven't betrayed you, it's not what it seems to be=0A=

You lost your temper, killed without mercy=0A=

Too shocked to leave this bloody place=0A=

Handcuffed with a... a smile on your face=0A=

=0A=

Say your last wish as time is running out=0A=

The man to redeem you from your sins=0A=

To console you and listen to your crying=0A=

A servant from God, a prayer for the dying=0A=

A prayer for the dying=0A=

A prayer for the dying=0A=

=0A=

Living in your cell, your sentence is death=0A=

The chair awaits, take your last breath=0A=

Locked away, for the crime you committed=0A=

Accused of murder, now you'll pay for it=0A=

Don't say you're innocent, after what you've done=0A=

Laughing at death isn't much fun=0A=

Blood on your hands is plain evidence=0A=

A look in your eyes, as if you're in trance=0A=

=0A=

The words are spoken, time to die=0A=

No fear in your eyes as you approach the chair=0A=

The handle is pulled, say goodbye=0A=

Seeing the preacher to whom you stare=0A=

=0A=

My son, I hope you understand what I'm about to say=0A=

Your life is almost ended, so don't be afraid=0A=

The lord you're a good man, so have a little faith=0A=

Your soul will rest in heaven, where there is love and no hate=0A=

=0A=

Say your last wish as time is running out=0A=

The man to redeem you from your sins=0A=

To console you and listen to your crying=0A=

A servant from God, a prayer for the dying=0A=

A prayer for the dying=0A=

=0A=
