Until the End

The Nightwatchman
No one knows who gave the orders
No one asks about the crime
No one looks behind the curtains
No one questions why
The only time we got
Is right about now
I cross my heart
I take the vow
Ill never turn
Ill never bend
I'm with ya now
Until the end
Tonights the test
Tonights the time
I am the punishment
That fits the crime
I'll break the bricks
I'll pick the locks
I don't got nothing
But I'll give what I got
Ill never turn
Ill never bend
I'm with ya now
Until the end
Ten trials whose outcome
All fixed from the start
Nine judges sitting countin'
There money in the dark
Eight towers of iron
Surround the desert town
On a cold December mornin'
Seven martyrs knock them down
Six fathers still waiting
For there sons to come home
Five mothers who know better
And accept that there gone
Four years Iive been hunted
Still i breathe free
Three times i shot the sheriff
And did not spare the deputy
Two prayers I'm prayin'
Until were together
One promise that I'm keeping
Tonight and forever
I'll never turn
I'll never bend
I'm with ya now
Until the end
