Awaiting the Gallows Lyrics

Anew world waits for me,
land of dreams and mercy.
Grand-place, tribunal of life,
Sentence of Death,
They'll slice the lies.

Terror...Blade...blade of cold despair and fear,
show me the way...give me your sign,
your love, oh sweet steel of mine...

Crows croak, staring at my pain,
this world gave me birth with those chains.
I curse the living, but I bless the dead
The edge of the blade, will part my head.

Blood...My blood! I can feel you below my skin,
my skin...cuts, my guts will rot in the pauper's grave...
DEATH takes me!

And I yearn for my end...
The gallows are the gates.
The doors to liberation.
Heaven won't have my repent.
The gallows are the gates.
I wait for execution...
But my ghost shall haunt 'till the end of time!

Death...destiny...I haunt the ether forever free,
dooming mortals.
I'm Fantom Lord,
The blade of the gallows recruits my menials.

And I yearn for my end...
The gallows are the gates.
The doors to liberation.
Heaven won't have my repent.
The gallows are the gates,
I'm waiting...
