Ride the Lightning
Guilty as chargedBut damn it, it ain't rightThere's someone else controlling meDeath in the airStrapped in the electric chairThis can't be happening to me
Who made you God to say,I'll take your life from you?
Flash before my eyesNow it's time to dieBurning in my brainI can feel the flame
Wait for the signTo flick the switch of deathIt's the beginning of the endSweat, chilling coldAs I watch death unfoldConsciousness my only friend
My fingers grip with fearWhat am I doing here?
Flash before my eyesNow it's time to dieBurning in my brainI can feel the flame
Someone help meOh please, God help meThey are trying to take it all awayI don't want to die
Time moving slowThe minutes seem like hoursThe final curtain call I seeHow true is thisJust get it over withIf this is true, just let it be
Wakened by horrid screamFreed from this frightening dream
Flash before my eyesNow it's time to dieBurning in my brainI can feel the flame
