Capital Punishment

Waiting as a damned mad
Waiting for a sign
Waiting for the hangman
Waiting in dark time
Capital punishment for me
Capital punishment for I have sinned
Capital punishment for me
Capital punishment for I was wrong

Waiting in your cold cell
Waiting for a sign
Waiting in your cold hell
Waiting for the chime
Capital punishment for you
Capital punishment for you have sinned
Capital punishment for you
Capital punishment for you were wrong

Let us pray!
Let us pray!
Let us pray!
Let us pray!
Let us pray!
Let us pray!
Let us pray!
Let us pray!

Father, we're so close to death
You told us this time would come
We were full of scorn
Now we see the wrong deeds bloom
You told us that we were wrong

Father, do you hear us at all?
Oh you must be there
You were always there
Father, it nearly seems to me
There's no answering
You are gone, you are gone

Capital punishment for me
Capital punishment for I have sinned
Capital punishment for you
Capital punishment for you have sinned
Capital punishment for us
Capital punishment for we have sinned

Take a look at the sky, can you see a god?
Once when he was there we had a chance, one chance
But a long time ago he was left alone by his own mankind
And so he died

Goodbye, my love
Goodbye, my love
Goodbye, my love
Goodbye, my love
Capital punishment for me
Capital punishment for all

Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
