|
I was just a young boy |
|
When that man came to this town |
|
We got no sign or warning |
|
It was their final morning |
|
The wind was howling murder |
|
When he was calling out their names |
|
The ones that he had come for |
|
To fill their fate |
|
And the scars on his face |
|
Made us all look away |
|
As his eyes blazed with rage |
|
Seeking vengeance for |
|
[refrain:] |
|
Fifteen years |
|
Convicted, locked away |
|
They'd forgotten their fears |
|
He was gone away forever |
|
Trial of rage |
|
The years were washed away |
|
With the blood of the same |
|
Guilty who gave out his name |
|
Did they hear their destiny calling |
|
Did they dream the hammer fall |
|
Too scared to run away |
|
To live another day |
|
Were the shadows in the corners |
|
Whispering his name |
|
Were they dreaming of forgiveness |
|
Till it was too late |
|
And the scars on his face |
|
Made us all look away |
|
As his eyes blazed with rage |
|
Seeking vengeance for |
|
[refrain] |
|
Oh, it was a trial of rage |
|
Yeah, and they were all guilty |
|
[refrain] |
|
He buried them in flames |
|
Guilty who gave out his name |
|
Spitting on their grave |
|
Guilty who gave out his name |
