At The Gallows End Lyrics by Twitching Tongues

Preacher Man - EP

2012

[Verse 1]
Sunrise, I greet you, the beauty of your light
So warm and tender was never the night
In tears, I see you, the last time it will be
So give me your blessing, I'll meet my destiny
No rest for the sinner
Hypnos refused me my sleep
This was the last night of my life
With wine, I pondered on my deeds
I drank to the devil with servants
It's good with a friend where you go
No one would share my last chalice
So I drink to the ones that I know
[Chorus]
Ring, brother, ring for me
Ring the bells of hope and faith
Ring for my damnation
I am at the gallows end
[Verse 2]
With sad emotions, I sing this epitaph
My swan song, my headstone, the farewell of my heart
The hills of Tyburn, up where the gallows stand
Only the vultures will come see me hang
Behold the sight of Golgatha
The gallows enlightened by the moon
Proud of his art are the carpenter
His creation a tool for my doom
I am the outcast, no winner
I am the fallen, the one
That lived all his life as a sinner
The tempter has called me his son
[Chorus]
Ring, brother, ring for me
Ring the bells of hope and faith
Ring for my damnation
I am at the gallows end
[Verse 3]
Soon, it is the time, the dark has now fled
And I see the place for my death
The priest, he will pray for my lost soul
I'm sure he's wasting his time
A sinner, a fool or a devil
Or just a victim of life
It's no fun to burn in hell's fire
But I sure have enjoyed my life
[Chorus]
Ring, brother, ring for me
Ring the bells of hope and faith
Ring for my damnation
I am at the gallows end
