A manRope tied around his neck
Couldn't escape even if he triedHe looks old and tired
And careless and sadAnd he's got nowhere to be
And life's not that greatSo he raises his left hand
So everybody watchingThen the guard drops what he's holding
And the man takes his final breatheAnd there are cheers
We killed a bad manBut it still doesn't feel as good as it should
We feel guilty
