[C#m]
[A] [C#m]
Last night I wasn't sleeping,
[F#] I knew it [C#m] was my last.
I'd just been lying thinking, [F#] reliving [E] all my [C#]
[C#m] past.
My family [C#] and friends have left, [F#] my children [C#m] are all lost.
[A] And now I'm standing in a dead cell, just a sense [G#] of time for me.
[C#m]
My poor heart it is thumping, [F#] my head [C#] is set to [C#m] float.
I feel the rope around my [F#] neck, now it's there [C#] for good.
[C#m]
I know that I am enough,
[F#] my arms are [C#] only stood.
[C#m] [A] And now I'm standing on the gallows, to be [G#] murdered in cold blood.
[C#] We [B] are creatures [A] of [G#] darkness, [G#m] [C#] [B]
dead [A] of [G#] time.

I can't believe my own ears, [F#] my heart [C#] is full of lead.
[C#m] I bet you the client gets the job, [F#] of pulling [C#m] off your head.
[A] You leave me kicking in the darkness, covering the [G#] walls with dust.
Oh [C#] [G#m] [C#]
hangman, oh hangman, [F#]
you're working in the [C#m] shade.
We are creatures of the jungle, [F#] whose messages [C#m] display.
In graphic zones of blood and ash, [F#]
all down [C#] the civil [C#m] lake.
[A]
And you're the creepy little monkey, who murders to [G#] be safe.
[C#] And in about six minutes [C#m] time, [F#m] I'll be [C#] thrown into the lab.
[C#m] By the screws who dug my grave, [F#] [C#] and never felt [C#m] the shame.
Who threw me in still breathing, [F#] at the color of me [C#m] in the slime.
[A] And put me on a map in the governor's office, a number [C#] working all the way.

[C#]
[C#m] It's true as I stand here, [F#] I would wish to be [C#]
untried.
[C#m] The red clothes, lies, clean hatched clothes.
My [F#] death might somehow [C#m] be justified.
[G#] [C#] There's no one who comes to [F#] pray, around my heart, or [C#] in my [C#m] mind.
[A] I'm a victim, dead in a world full of slaves.
And I'm buried [A#] in a fish [G#] hole.
