Goats head gallows

A goats head effigy hangs in the shadows

The ropes tightend with every quiver 

The sound of a neck breaking at the gallows

"Im next" the thought down my spine a shiver

Back and forth, forth and back 

The goats head it swings 

Covered in flies hanging in a clear sack

The blood drained oh what this night brings

I hear laughing and screaming

My mouth is gaged and my eyes bound

One min later a light beaming 

It's time I'm next ive been under ground

The sun it burned the early morning sky

I'm next as a sacrifice at the gallows

My hearts pounding I want to run but why

Ill just hang like the goats head in the shadows
