So the story goes
This is a tale that must be told
For what could be your destiny
You never know
I never meant to be here
I never even tried
But until you know when youâre lost and down
Youâll come to trouble in time
It was a cold December
I wept day and night
In a steel-toed rage, made a big mistake
Now Iâll be doing time
I was running with the order
I was running out of time
Now for me there is no quarter
I donât wanna be here
I donât wanna die
Serving 30 years to life
What I did, I canât deny
Now the sorrow in my heart will never fade
I remember it so well
But now Iâm sat here bored to hell
Lord, Iâm sorry for the error of my ways
They sent me on a mission
Out to earn my stripes
Shouldâve known damn well when the kerbstone fell
Things would never be right
I was running with the order
I was running out of time
Now for me there is no quarter
I donât wanna be here
Iâm really not surprised
Serving 30 years to life
What I did, I canât deny
Now the sorrow in my heart will never fade
I remember it so well
But now Iâm sat here bored to hell
Lord, Iâm sorry for the error of my ways
âCause now I know, now I know
I was wrong and I canât let this go
I know, now I know
I am sorry, what a wretched soul
Oh, what a big mistake
Now Iâm growing old
18 years Iâve got to go
I waste way in this cage
Iâm all alone
Thatâs how the story goes
This is a tale that must be told
For what could be your destiny
You never know
âCause when youâre running with the order
Youâre only running out of time
Now for me there is no quarter
I didnât wanna be here
I donât wanna die
Serving 30 years to life
What I did, I canât deny
Now the sorrow in my heart will never fade
I remember it all went well
But itâs too late to save myself
Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my ways
So the story goes
This is a tale that must be told
For the sorrow in my heart will never fade
So the story goes
This is a tale that must be told
Yes, Iâm sorry for the error of my ways
