Sittin' in this cold, dark cell, I count the days
Got the weight of the world in a thousand ways
The chains around my heart, they ain't never lettin' go
But tonight I face the devil, down in death row
Oh, the gallows wait, like a vulture on a tree
No prayers left to save a sinner like me
In the midnight hour, I'll walk that final mile
With the devil's grin and a broken smile
Shadows of the past, they haunt my every breath
Whispers of the dead echoin' in my head
I made my bed in sin, now I lie in shame
The hangman's rope, just a part of the game
Oh, the gallows wait, like a vulture on a tree
No prayers left to save a sinner like me
In the midnight hour, I'll walk that final mile
With the devil's grin and a broken smile
The preacher's words, they fall like cold rain
No redemption here, just a soul in pain
The clock ticks slow, like a death march tune
Beneath the blood-red sky of a southern moon
Oh, the gallows wait, like a vulture on a tree
No prayers left to save a sinner like me
In the midnight hour, I'll walk that final mile
With the devil's grin and a broken smile
As the dawn breaks through, and the shadows fade away
I face my end, there's nothing left to say
With one last breath, I curse the life I know
And take that final step, down in death row

Got the weight of the world in a thousand ways
The chains around my heart, they ain't never lettin' go
But tonight I face the devil, down in death row
Oh, the gallows wait, like a vulture on a tree
No prayers left to save a sinner like me
In the midnight hour, I'll walk that final mile
With the devil's grin and a broken smile
Shadows of the past, they haunt my every breath
Whispers of the dead echoin' in my head
I made my bed in sin, now I lie in shame
The hangman's rope, just a part of the game
Oh, the gallows wait, like a vulture on a tree
No prayers left to save a sinner like me

With one last breath, I curse the life I know
And take that final step, down in death row
