I walked to you through the hills
You answered the door
Your hands in the air
Giving up already
Go ahead and beg for mercy
Go ahead and judge who's worthy.

I thought I was the one who was hiding
I thought I was the one most afraid

Words and bullets, whizzing by
Warm my ears in the night
When the sun comes up I'm a dead man -
Sing, sing, sing,
Death in a lullaby.

I thought I was the one who was hiding
I thought I was the one most afraid

Here comes the ruination
I never asked for this.
One last drink for our unwelcome guest -
Will you go quietly?
While I steal away?

I thought I was the one who was hiding
I thought I was the one most afraid.
