Dreaming Of The Trial
I see a light up ahead, it’s calling me away
From a bitter-calm rest, my courages washes away
Because if I’ve done wrong, I already know
And if I’m gonna stride, better be a step down below
My heart used to pump life, now it just pushes out a chill
Little window to the grave and I’m standing on the sill
I want to say I’m not afraid, but want more not to lie
Oh I’m an open book, babe, even a fire won’t hide
chorus
And there’s only one death I’m gonna die, there’s only one thing waiting on the other side
Oh I can see him now with my naked eye turning page after page, burning truth after lie
And I dream, I dream of the trial
Don’t want to look at the face that saw me make mistakes
Don’t want to feel those eyes, don’t want to live under their gaze
I can’t keep holding the hand that I pulled through my lies
Can’t live to be the man who watches a good woman die
chorus
