The Iron Gibbet

Here I hang for you to see
You laugh but feared the living me
You spit at me as you pass by
Hear the Victims' echoing Cries
I took their Lives and you took mine
Fair, one could say, I committed a Crime
But one Day I hope to return
To teach you Fear and you will learn

Will I roam at Night to find Revenge?
A Night that will be bloody drenched
Will it be filled with hundred Cries?
One for each Soul that dies
Will my bony Hand rule this Place?
Will Death rear it's rotting Face?
The Village Streets be soaked in red
With bloody Sculptures of severed Heads?

(Chorus:)
My Eyes are gone yet still I stare
With empty Sockets so cold, beware
My Flesh it falls from my Bones
The iron Gibbet, my final Home

Mummified I hang alone
Crumbling skin and clanging Bones
My Laughter resounds in the Wind
Forgive me not for I have sinned
Gallow Hill, the Darkness surrounds
My Mouth it screams without a Sound
The Fools they stare, I feel their Fear
I will remain for many Years

(Chorus:)
My Eyes are gone yet still I stare
With empty Sockets so cold, beware
My Flesh it falls from my Bones
The iron Gibbet, my final Home

Can you hear me?
I am coming…
