Triumph - Don't Take My Life lyrics

rate me

I know there's a time

For living

I'm aware of that

We all must die

But why must my young life

End so soon

Such a shame

To weep and cry

In the night

Someone is calling

And in my mind

A picture remains

People say

I've gone half crazy

People say that I'm insane

Don't take my life

Away from me

Don't take my life,

Set me free

A fire is burning

And time is driftin' away

They say that I killed

My dear brother

This terrible crime I didn't do

Even my own momma said

Baby what's come over you

People judge and peer

Down at me

As tears stream

Down my face

I can't find a reason

Or any rhyme

I think there must be

Some mistake

As only I stand witness

To my plea

People shake their heads

And pity me

Sentencing has dealt

The final blow

To live my life

Remaining on death row
