Bm
The hangman's waiting for then
A
With the rope in his hands
G Em
The silence makes him cast doubt
Bm
On their innocence
Bm
This cross I have to carry
This cross I have to bear
A
So keep your mind at ease
G
This blood that's on my hands
Em Bm
I simply wash away
A Em
I'm not a judge or a peer
Bm
Just a man with and iron heart
A G
And I can't set them free to live again
D A
It's their time, I won't stall
Em G
And you should never blame me, I'm not at fault
D A
I don't strive for pleasure, cuz there will be none
Em G D
And no appreciation when the deed is done
Bm
The eyes all focus on me
A
As I walk to the side
G Em Bm
To pull the lever that could be released by anyone
A Em
It's a battle of will
Bm
Between conscious and righteousness
A G
And it's more than one soul that's on the line
D A
It's their time, I won't stall
Em G
And you should never blame me, I'm not at fault
D A
I don't strive for pleasure, cuz there will be none
Em G Bm
And no appreciation when the deed is done
D
The hangman just stands in the distance
A
To be shunned in dismay
Em G
From any cynical feelings, I just shy away
D A
I won't find my glory, drying in the sun
Em G D
There's no appreciation when the deed is done
