[G]When they tightly strap me in, g[C]ive me lethal inject[G]ion,
[B]Just a few moments to [E]live, no re[C]morse for what I [D]did,
[G]It was for the betterment of man[C], I gave the utmost [G]sacrifice,
[B]Before more damage could be [E]done I took his [G]life.
(G F# E)* E' C
There was a split second of silence when the dart punctured the skin,
Beady [G]eyes rolled back in head, body [F#]dropped from the poison,
(G F# E)* E' C
They could incapacitate me, but could not erase my sneer,
I heard a t[G]housand people screaming, while [F#]three billion others cheered,
(G F# E)* C D
He was gone, and I would soon be...
[G]Executed by the state, all ap[C]peals would be in [G]vain,
[B]I was not criminally i[E]nsane, in f[C]act, I was found [D]to be,
[G]An otherwise caring and respecta[C]ble member of societ[G]y,
[B]A minor threat, except for t[E]hat one man I ki[G]lled.
(G F# E)* E' C
As the sedatives take effect, I just smile and close my eyes,
There's [G]a priest kneeling next to me, he asks me i[F#]f I realize,
(G F# E)* E' C
I Was going straight to hell, and he thought that I should know,
That the [G]man I killed's replacement planned thi[F#]s whole scenario,
(G F# E)* C D
And what I did had no significance at all.
