Song Description

A man on death row looks back at all he has done and asks "Who'll save me now?"

Lyrics

Lord, who'll save me now,
Now that I have lost
What little I have found.
Lord, don't take me now,
I have so much to make right
Before I die.

I am lying in the darkness,
The cold steel to my back,
I'm alone now in a small room,
I ain't never coming back,
I have lived a life of trouble,
I have caused so much sorrow,
Upon this broken road that I am on.

I was helpless on that fateless night,
I had just one thing in my sight,
I was blind as false justice,
I could not see the light,
As I relive that dark moment,
As I walk to my atonement,
I know the promised land I just won't see.

It's time now for my silence,
I guess I'm gonna get paid off,
I know I am deserving,
And the only one to blame,
As they strap me in the chair,
As the eyes of justice stop and glare,
They watch as I draw my final breath.
