We remember why we stand here today
"I'M GOING TO CHOP OFF YOUR HEAD!"
I COULD'VE SWORE THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID.
AS YOU HELD THAT KNIFE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD TAKE A LIFE....
IT WAS NOT MINE FOR WHICH I FEARED!
BUT FOR THE ONE THAT WAS SO SCARED.
I REALIZED NOW AT HOW SAD YOU WERE.
OH HOW SADNESS IS SUCH AN EVIL LURE!
EVEN TO THOSE WHO ARE SO SWEET.
I KNOW NOW WE WERE MEANT TO MEET.
SO I COULD RAISE MY HAND AND SAY:
"NO, FRIEND THIS IS NOT THE WAY"
"I'M GOING TO CHOP OFF YOUR HEAD!"
I COULD'VE SWORE THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID.
WE REMEMBER WHY WE STAND HERE TODAY!
AS WE WATCH YOU REST AND LAY.
THOSE WERE THE REMARKS THAT WE HAD MADE.
WE ARE SO SORRY WE WERE NEVER ABLE TO COME TO AIDE
I COULD'VE SWORE THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID.
AS YOU HELD THAT KNIFE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD TAKE A LIFE....
IT WAS NOT MINE FOR WHICH I FEARED!
BUT FOR THE ONE THAT WAS SO SCARED.
I REALIZED NOW AT HOW SAD YOU WERE.
OH HOW SADNESS IS SUCH AN EVIL LURE!
EVEN TO THOSE WHO ARE SO SWEET.
I KNOW NOW WE WERE MEANT TO MEET.
SO I COULD RAISE MY HAND AND SAY:
"NO, FRIEND THIS IS NOT THE WAY"
"I'M GOING TO CHOP OFF YOUR HEAD!"
I COULD'VE SWORE THAT'S WHAT YOU SAID.
WE REMEMBER WHY WE STAND HERE TODAY!
AS WE WATCH YOU REST AND LAY.
THOSE WERE THE REMARKS THAT WE HAD MADE.
WE ARE SO SORRY WE WERE NEVER ABLE TO COME TO AIDE
