The Executioner's Woe Lyrics


Sharpen my blade

Put on my hood

It's killing day

Bring them to my knee

Enter my world, it's so crude and surreal

Day after day I must punish with zeal

Nobody knows

Why should they care?

I suffer alone in my

Executioner's Woe

Sentenced to live my life a slave to the state

Because of past my crimes on the dark edge of fate

Under the king's control, his wish is my command

Necks on my metal, a beast of cruelty on demand

Dead eyes in a hood

The soulless to bear

I suffer alone in my

Executioners Woe

I know I've made my lot in life

I could have passed your test

But society was cruel to me

Deemed sickened and castoff from the rest

So if you're ever in the crowd, shouting for someone's end

You must know that as the head falls, so does my heart

I'm a man just like the rest doomed to dole out shame

Faceless summoned killer there, no love and no name

Nobody knows

Why should they care?

I suffer alone in my

Executioner's Woe
