One hour left to live one hour 'til i die I should be walking free yet still here i now lie Receive the blessing of the blade The guillotine Misjudged and sentenced for a crime i did not do Accused of witchcraft and for raping one Or two Receive the blessing of the blade The guillotine The masses cheer i climb the stairs I hope for mercy but salvation's nowhere near Just one word from being forced to join the headless dead Strapped into place with a basket at my head I hear the whisper now of the blade Slicing the air Receive the blessing of the blade The guillotine
