When they tightly strap me in, give me lethal injection,
Just a few moments to live, no remorse for what I did,
It was for the betterment of man, I gave the utmost
sacrifice,
Before more damage could be done I took his life.
There was a split second of silence when the dart punctured
the skin,
Beady eyes rolled back in head, the body dropped from the
poison,
They could incapacitate me, but could not erase my sneer,
I heard a thousand people screaming, while three billion
others cheered,
He was gone, and I would soon be
Executed by the state, all appeals would be in vain,
I was not criminally insane, in fact, I was found to be,
An otherwise caring and respectable member of society,
A minor threat, except for that one man I killed.
As the sedatives take effect, I just smile, close my eyes,
There's a priest kneeling next to me, he asks me if I
realize,
I was going straight to hell, and he thought that I should
know,
That the man I killed's replacement planned this whole
Scenario,
And what I did had no significance at all.
