Black Gallows

in the setting sun it stands alone
like a majestic throne
the ancient gallows painted black
the gallows that once broke my neck
accused of evil sorcery
condemned to die in agony
beneath my feet i saw the crowd
the people roared aloud

i curse you all
your stars will fall
i will return
your souls shall burn

the hangman came and whipped my back
he laid the rope around my neck
in view of death, a magic spell
the hollow sound of the demon bell

i cursed this place
before i died
they won`t forget
this evil night

execution, suffocation, the rope of death
termination, strangulation, a strangled breath

i clench my fist
i will subsist
spectators died
no god in sight

execution, suffocation, the rope of death
termination, strangulation, a strangled breath

rise...rise...rise...black gallows
