Waiting as a damned man 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



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

Are you 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



Capital punishment for me

Capital punishment for all
