Lyrics[Verse]
Sailing on my every step
Inching off of the earth
Is magnified by the things I've done
The thing that I've become

Every lift of my hand
Coffee cup up and back
Is magnified by the things I've done
The things I've seen
The things I've caused
I'm a dead man walking

The hammer that I once brought down
Now hovers over me
Cast a shadow across onto me

The hallways are all mocking me
What I've become, they're all mocking me
I'm a dead man walking
A dead man walking
A dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking
A dead man walking
A dead man walkingYou might also like
