Deadman Walking

Footsteps echo down a hollow street,
Shadows dance where the lost souls meet.
Fingers numb, heart turned to stone,
A ghost in the world but I walk alone.

They say the eyes never lie,
Look in mine, you’ll see the sky—
Burning black, no turning back,
A soul too far gone to fight.

I'm a dead man walking, ain't no saving me,
Buried in the past, but the past won’t leave.
Chains on my spirit, whispers in my ear,
Dead man walking, but I’m still right here.

Blood on my hands that won’t wash away,
Every road I take leads back to pain.
Sins like a weight, dragging me down,
Sinking so deep I can’t hear a sound.

They say the eyes never lie,
Look in mine, you’ll see the sky—
Burning black, no turning back,
A soul too far gone to fight.

I'm a dead man walking, ain't no saving me,
Buried in the past, but the past won’t leave.
Chains on my spirit, whispers in my ear,
Dead man walking, but I’m still right here.

Maybe I was born to fade,
Maybe my fate’s been set in flames.
But if there’s a light, if there’s a way,
Tell me now before it’s too late…

I'm a dead man walking, ain't no saving me,
Buried in the past, but the past won’t leave.
Chains on my spirit, whispers in my ear,
Dead man walking, but I’m still right here.
