|
I know there's a time |
|
For living |
|
I'm aware of that |
|
We all must die |
|
But why must my young life |
|
End so soon |
|
Such a shame |
|
To weep and cry |
|
In the night |
|
Someone is calling |
|
And in my mind |
|
A picture remains |
|
People say |
|
I've gone half crazy |
|
People say that |
|
I'm insane |
|
Don't take my life |
|
Away from me |
|
Don't take my life, |
|
Set me free |
|
A fire is burning |
|
And time is driftin' away |
|
They say that |
|
I killed My dear brother |
|
This terrible crime |
|
I didn't do |
|
Even my own momma said |
|
Baby what's come over you |
|
People judge and peer |
|
Down at me |
|
As tears stream |
|
Down my face |
|
I can't find a reason |
|
Or any rhyme |
|
I think there must be |
|
Some mistake |
|
As only I stand witness |
|
To my plea |
|
People shake their heads |
|
And pity me |
|
Sentencing has dealt |
|
The final blow |
|
To live my life |
|
Remaining on death row |
