the warden & the hangman - matt holubowski lyrics

Loading...

i saw you there, face grim and arms bare

all in tears, placed in the electric chair

all that you have been has suddenly become the air around me. as i breathe you in, i shiver in your place, for you have left your body in a haste. i never even got to watch you make a final blink. your life is now a blot of ink, and i can hardly tell what it was that you had been writing

and now i crawl into myself
like you held fast until morning in your cell

though you weren’t righteous, and you never knew what wrong is, i have loved you in spite of this, and i promise i will mourn you, and i’m glad that you forgave the warden and the hangman. in your final words, i saw the man i knew was meant to be my friend until the end. i guess you were, my brother, just not in a good way

and now i crawl into myself
and in time i’ll also crawl out of this h-ll

fare thee well forever, i will suffer still a little longer, but i have no anger, nor fear, no masks, no veneers, for today i saw the law break itself in awe. you have never done the things they said you’ve done, and we both knew, and now i know alone, and they will burn the whitest bones. is this how we atone?

well now i crawl, into myself
while they bury you in existential jail
