Rage - The Scaffold Lyrics
You gotta face it, it's the endThis world knows no right, they wouldn't see what is truthThey won't believe you're not to blameNo one can say - what's coming your wayAnd there ain't no way outThey're all looking downNo one makes no soundWhy must it end all in this way, why, why, why?The torture's been surmounted nowyou told them all they wantedThe pain you've overcome somehowbut what'll come from now on?Dyin' and rotting will be your destinySooner than nature plannedWhere are those who loved you they all turned awayAnd no one will shed a tear[Chorus:]Raise up your eyesThe scaffold awaitsTruth tells no liesThe scaffold awaitsYou're left alone in agonyThe death blow awaits youThe public is your enemyFor crime someone must payLying is right - it's an antinomyBut no one gives a shitWhat is it, this mankind, a crowd of betrayersFearing for their own lives?[Chorus]Dyin' and rotting will be your destinysooner than nature plannedYou thought that someone loved you, but they let aninnocent die[Chorus]Good or evil - it's in their mindsBut they're so careless, though you've been kindTake care of treason, kiss on your cheekThey got perception, but they're too weakSo many voices outside the roomThey're waiting for you, await your doomLay down your head now - you're gonna dieThe scaffold awaits for your parting cry
