Cannibal Corpse - The Strangulation Chair Lyrics
Trapped in this prison awaiting my deathCondemned to die by draconian meansAn eye for an eye is the rule of this landBut the victim in question did not die by myHandA mockery of justiceInequityThe murderer will live but I will dieStrapped to a chair unable to breatheOther condemned have died before meConstrained in the chair I saw fear in their eyesThe executioner smiled as he took theirLivesCrushing their windpipesGarrotedThrottled with iron they succumb to deathThe Strangulation ChairConstriction of the throatNo air for the lungs, no blood for the brainA death I don't deserveBlameless of this crimeOnly I know this is trueThe Strangulation ChairThe spinal column breaksThen my life will cease, my final releaseA death I have not earnedBut still have to faceThey are the murderers nowMy day has come now it's my turn to dieHands tied they lead me awayThe executioner collars my neckIn terror I wait for my strangulationMy strangulation, my strangulationDeathMy mind slips to darknessUnconscious foreverThe crime they committed they will not knowThe Strangulation ChairConstriction of the throatNo air for the lungs, no blood for the brainA death I don't deserveBlameless of this crimeOnly I know this is trueThe Strangulation ChairThe spinal column breaksThen my life will cease, my final releaseA death I have not earnedBut still have to faceThey are the murderers now
