Andrew Stanton - The Executioner Lyrics

[Intro]
[?]

[Verse 1]
I never was the picture of a model son
A crooked criminal they caught holding the gun
It got so hard to see the truth from all the lies
Slowly becoming more and more what I despise
I never should've left my foot inside the door (Inside the door)
Never content and always craving something more (Something more)
I feel the darkness closing in on every side
It’s time for something deep inside of me to die

[Pre-Chorus]
The executioner puts the cross upon my back (Cross upon my back)
How beautiful, the breath that is my last

[Chorus]
Start praying over me last rites
I’m giving up the ghost inside
I’m hanging on the nails I drive
This cross is where I come to die
And I’ve waited so long
This is the hill I’ll die on
Start praying over me last rites
This cross is where I come to die
[Post-Chorus]
[?]

[Verse 2]
You’re not allowed to see the cards against my chest
I never trust nobody with my wretchedness (With my wretchedness)
So I sit and try to fight this fight alone (Fight alone)
I fake allegiance, can’t decide which side I’m on
So I scream, beat my head against the wall
Forget the walk, can’t even crawl
I abuse the wounds that grace healed
You say you love me but it’s hard to love myself

[Pre-Chorus]
The executioner puts the cross upon my back (Cross upon my back)
How beautiful, the breath that is my last

[Chorus]
Start praying over me last rites
I’m giving up the ghost inside
I’m hanging on the nails I drive
This cross is where I come to die
And I’ve waited so long
This is the hill I’ll die on
Start praying over me last rites
This cross is where I come to die
[Post-Chorus]
[?]

[Breakdown]
Let the hammer swing down
I’ve made my peace
Said my goodbyes
There’s no eulogies
When this convict dies

[Bridge]
My beautiful executioner
My beautiful executioner
I’ve made my peace
Said my goodbyes
There’s no eulogies
When this convict dies
I’ve made my peace
Said my goodbyes
There’s no eulogies

[Chorus]
Start praying over me last rites
I’m giving up the ghost inside
I’m hanging on the nails I drive
This cross is where I come to die
And I’ve waited so long
This is the hill I’ll die on
Start praying over me last rites
This cross is where I come to die
[Outro]
Let the hammer swing down
I’ve made my peace
Said my goodbyes
There’s no eulogies
This cross is where I come to die
