Songs:Gonna Get Mine (96283)

Lyrics

They strapped her in
blood drained from her face
I tried to smile,
she tried not to faint
each tick of the clock
sounded like a blast
they put in her I.V.
said she’d go real fast
I saw the poison spread
like ink in a water glass
before she went cold she said:
THEY SAY WHEN YOU DIE
YOU’LL FIND PEACE OF MIND
WELL I HOPE THEY’RE RIGHT, I HOPE THEY’RE RIGHT
THEY SAY WHEN A BELL RINGS
AN ANGEL GETS WINGS
AND TONIGHT WHEN THE LAST BELL CHIMES
I’M GONNA GET MINE
Used to believe
an eye for an eye
you cut someone down
you become the sacrifice
not so cut and dried
when before your eyes
you watch her writhe as death
breathes in her life
What point has been made
through this retribution
any souls saved, anything changed
she prayed:
CHORUS


BRIDGE: If it could bring back just one little lamb
I could wash, the blood from my hands
she looked like an angel, peace on her lips
she had flown, flown away, gotten her wings.
The victim’s family
said a swift amen
thought their hearts would heal
through an act of revenge
The poison spread
like ink in a water glass
before she went cold
she said:
Chorus
They strapped her in
blood drained from her face…
