"Gallows" lyrics

Take me to the gallows watch me swallow my last breath
As the crown begins to circle screaming out "open his chest"
I swore I'd love you till the end until the blood runs from my veins
I never dreamed that you would be the one walking on my grave

Lay me down
Wash my sins
Cleanse these wounds
Bury me now

Keep me bleeding till I'm dead inside
I'm just a shell of a man and living to die
Keep me bleeding till I'm dead inside
I'm just a shell of a man and living to die

I'm giving up I'm letting go
I surrender to it all
I'm waiting here so I can fall alone and broken

Yeah

Her lips were laced with venom as she slipped me one last kiss
I plead my case before the jury "I'm not guilty I'm just sick"
I close my eyes and feel the daggers as they slide into my neck
I only hope that at your judgment you'll remember I fight back

Lay me down
Wash my sins
Cleanse these wounds
Bury me now

Keep me bleeding till I'm dead inside
I'm just a shell of a man and living to die
Keep me bleeding till I'm dead inside
I'm just a shell of a man and living to die

I'm giving up I'm letting go
I surrender to it all
I'm waiting here so I can fall alone and broken

There's no goodbye
In these blue eyes
There's no tomorrow
There's no goodbye
There's no more future
In these blue eyes

Keep me bleeding till I'm dead inside
I'm just a shell of a man and living to die
Keep me bleeding till I'm dead inside
I'm just a shell of a man and living to die

I'm giving up I'm letting go
I surrender to it all
I'm waiting here so I can fall alone and broken
Oh yeah
