I often wonder why I sit and wait to dieWhat have I 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 lightThis retribution has defiled me to no endAn execution without merit looms aheadTell me why!
I was a boy who had to live his own wayI never fit into the model they had designedI chose a path less takenI stood with others who had often felt the same
We got stares from passersbyOur dark attire seemed to frighten people awayAnd when the three young boys diedThey pointed fingers and entangled us in a lie!
No hope in sight
I sit here terrified!Can't 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 crimeAnd to justify their own faithWe were labeled pawns of Satan for a time
The three of us were attacked and disgracedFor many hours we were questioned and someone liedOne of us couldn't take itHis simple manner was manipulated in kindFear made him lie
I sit here terrified!Can't 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't someone try to bring the truth to light?Won't anybody open up their eyes?Before the three of us have lost our lives!
And Why?Can't anybody see through their disguise?!Only 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 to dieWhat have I 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 lightThis retribution has defiled me to no endAn execution without merit looms aheadTell me why
