The Trial Lyrics - Warhead

...as demanded by the prosecuting attorney the jury find him guilty and 

subsequently he is sentenced to death. His bitter ordeal begins... 

He says, I pulled the trigger, fearless and cool 

A murderer with intention, hardened like old school 

A cold-blooded man, holding up a store 

A calculated plan, to enforce what he's heading for 

Once I learned 'eye for eye', now I get pain for pain 

He wants me to die, I talk 'bout the D. A. 

He's counting 'life for life', he's showing up my way 

He says, there's a lot thats due - 

There are three ways to pay: 

For the bereaved we've got to dare 

Electric chair, death can be fair 

The draft of death gas chamber's breath 

Leads him to death, lock up the door! 

A lethal dose, a gift from God 

Puts him to sleep, smoothe like a dog 

The draft of death, gas chamber's breath 

Leads him to death, lock up the door! 

I'm facing judge and jury, the victim's families 

The actors of this play, of this criminal case 

The jury listen to, the words of the D. A. 

If they follow his request, I will be erased: 

We've got to free the world 

From the burdon of this beast 

With his loss of life, other people will find peace 

The punishment is fair, his guilt can't be denied 

The rules should be clear right now, 

There are three ways to die: 

For the bereaved, we've got to dare 

Electric chair, death can be fair 

The draft of death, gas chamber's breath 

Leads him to death, lock up the door! 

A lethal dose, a gift from God 

Puts him to sleep, smoothe like a dog 

The draft of death, gas chamber's breath 

Leads him to death, lock up the door! 

I've heard their words, I've heard them all 

Can't believe they're talking about me 

They made my hope rise and fall 

Now a real way out I cannot see 

All these feelings come down on me 

I've lost the gleam of hope, is this reality? 

It might come back again... 

I loved my life, they proved me wrong, 

I've buried dreams, I've buried plans 

Maybe they're right, what have I done? 

I killed two people, here I am 

All these feelings come down on me 

I've lost the gleam of hope, is this reality? 

Will it come back again?
