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
