No one knows who gave the orders
No oneasks about the crime
No one looks behind the curtains
No one questions why
The only time we got
Is right about now
I cross my heart
I take the vow
Ill never turn
Ill never bend
Im with ya now
until the end
Tonights the test
Tonights the time
I am the punishment
That fits the crime
Ill break the bricks
ill pick the locks
i dont got nothing
but ill give what i got
Ill never turn
Ill never bend
Im with ya now
until the end
10 trials whose outcome
all fixed from the start
9 Judges sitting countin
there money in the dark
8 towers of iron
surrond the desert town
on a cold December mornin
7 martyrs knock them down
6 fathers still waiting
for there sons to come home
5 mothers who know better
and accept that there gone
4 years ive been hunted
still i breathe free
3 times i shot the sherriff
and did not spare the deputy
2 prayers im prayin
until were togther
1 promise that im keeping
tonight and forever
Ill never turn
Ill never bend
Im with ya now
until the end
