Perfect Night for a Hanging

from The Collected Works by Tourniquet

/

lyrics

Enter the mind of a man torn in two
One of the twelve but is destined to do
What the black heart of a person can feel
When he follows what he sees to be real

His eyes say He already knows
My resentment now grows
I know what I must do
To thine own self be true

I know you are who you say that you are
Branded a traitor I feel very far
My mind and my heart don't appear to agree
This is what causes my hectic quandry
I'll always regret what I'm choosing today
I realize that you love me anyway

Trapped
But as hard as I try
Can't continue this lie
Hang
From the limb of a tree
I just gotta be ... me
