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