such an awful, tragic night
though i`ve only done what`s right
even with my conscience clear
i can`t help this flood of tears
i`ve got my eye on the finish line
though i`ve been striving for their good
i will be misunderstood
even my own darling dear
misconstrued my words so clear
given the time i think she would have understood
that it was for the greater good
soon i will meet her at our mansion in the sky
leaving this wicked world behind
it`s strange that it should end this way
but martyrs never have a say
