Låttexter: Triumph. Don't Take My Life.

I know there's a time for living
I'm aware that we all must die
But why must my young life end so soon
Such a shame to weep and cry

In the night someone is calling
And in my mind a picture remains
People say I've gone half crazy
People say that I'm insane

Don't take my life away from me
Don't take my life and set me free
A fire is burning and time is driftin' away

They say that I killed my dear brother
This terrible crime I didn't do
Even my very own momma says
Oh baby, what came over you?

People judge and peer down at me
As tears stream down my face
I can't find a reason or any rhyme
I think there must be some mistake

Don't take my life away from me
Don't take my life, set me free
A fire is burning and time is driftin' away

As only I stand witness to my plea
People shake their heads and pity me
Sentencing has dealt the final blow
To live my life remaining on death row

Don't take my life away from me
Don't take my life, set me free
Don't take my life away from me
Don't take my life, set me free
A fire is burning and time is driftin' away
