I brought this to pass
The blame should rest solely on me
I was too late
Or perhaps I didn’t care enough

I’m just a bastard
Pardon the man punish the damned
I’m just a coward
You put the fear of the devil in me

Cast me out to sea
And drown me slow

May the axe that falls first sever my tongue
Before doing what a noose could never get done

I’m just a bastard
Pardon the man, punish the damned
Take me instead
You put the fear of the devil in mе

What use is there for a bеggar
With only bitterness in his reign
Bastard, coward
Consumed by the need for revenge
Balancing equations that never resolve
Cast me out to sea
And drown me slow

May the axe that falls first sever my tongue
Before doing what a noose could never get done

Let the poison work slowly so I can feel Every drop coursing through my veins
May the hangman push me over and ensure that my journey ends with a sudden stop
