The Gallows
Welcome to the gallows my friend
Welcome to your lifes end
You lived you life so fast and hard
So from life you have been barred.
Worshipping everything under the sun
Taking what you wanted with a gun
From state to state
You made your own fate
So Welcome to the gallows my friend
Your life will soon end
Life on the run
I know hasn't been fun
Stealing and forcing your way
Your heart getting colder each day
Those you hurt without a care
To them you were so unfair
Welcome to the gallows my friend
Welcome to your lifes end
Money and greed
Taking more than you need
The hate you did breed
Indeed
Lifes had enough
May sound rough
Hell does await
For people filled with hate
Welcome to the gallows my friend
Your life now ends
