lyrics

When your life’s gonna end
As you hold your breath
When your life’s gonna end
In the hangman’s noose

Feel the rope around your neck
Your hands are tied
Smell of death in the air
Nobody cries
As you’re standing alone
In a wind blowing cold
Waiting for the priest
To bless your soul

When your life’s gonna end
As you hold your breath
When the lines in your palms
Speak of nothing but death
When the demons inside
Are finally let loose
When your life’s gonna end
In the hangman’s noose

When the priest done his job
”Our Father” been told
When your sins have been cleared
Your hand of glory sold
When the words from the judge
Echo in your head:
”You must reap what you sow
And hang ’til you’re dead”

When your life’s gonna end
As you hold your breath
When the lines in your palms
Speak of nothing but death
When the demons inside
Are finally let loose
When your life’s gonna end
In the hangman’s noose

When today’s cloudy sky
Is the last you see
When at last the Reaper
Will come for thee
When you’re ready to go
Into everlasting night
When you close your eyes
As the noose pulls tight

When your life’s gonna end
As you hold your breath
When the lines in your palms
Speak of nothing but death
When the demons inside
Are finally let loose
When your life’s gonna end
In the hangman’s noose
When your life’s gonna end
In the hangman’s noose
