I often wonder why I sit and wait and die When I'm about to justify the sentence taken Too many hours spent in darkness questioning how and why I can't remember many moments in the night This retribution has defiled me to no end An execution when the merit looms ahead, tell me why I was a boy who had to live his own way I never fit into the model they had designed I chose a path less taken I stood when others who went off and felt the same We got upstairs from passers-by A dark attire seemed to frighten people away And when the three young boys died They pointed fingers and entangled us in a line With no hope in sight I sit here terrified Can someone try to bring the truth to light? Won't anybody open up their eyes? Before the three of us have lost our lives Why was everybody so damn afraid? They blamed the devil for the heinousness of the crime To justify their own faith We were labeled pawns of Satan for a time The three of us were attacked and disgraced For many hours we were questioned and some maligned One of us couldn't take it His simple manner was manipulated in kind Fear made him lie Now I sit here terrified Can someone try to bring the truth to light? Won't anybody open up their eyes? Before the three of us have lost our lives Now I am terrified Can someone try to bring the truth to light? Won't anybody open up their eyes? Before the three of us have lost our lives Why was everybody so damn afraid? Can anybody see through their disguise? How they believe we didn't take their lives And now the three of us have lost our lives I often wonder why I sit and wait and die Whenever done to justify the sentence they gave Too many hours spent in darkness questioning how and why I can't remember many moments in the lie This retribution has defiled me to no end Execution without merit, loser head Tell me why
