How long must I stay
How long must I go on
Taking my chances on burning away
Don't take away my daylight
Don't take away my dream
Why must I go

 [bad word] ]
To [bad word] and back again
To [bad word] and back again
To [bad word] and back again
To [bad word] and back again

Will I make the morning
To see another day
The Gods [bad word] at midnight
They're taking me away
I'm waiting here on death row
I pray for my reprieve
Why must I go

 [bad word] 

The chaplain and the gardener
Have told me how to die
I've used up all my chances
Now's my time to cry
For I can hear the footsteps
The lights have just gone dim
I'm on the final journey

 [bad word] 
To [bad word] and back again
