60 Seconds/60 Minutes

60 Seconds/60 Minutes

The car chase
or how became a criminal
it's not really complicated
actually very simple
mama taught me right
I just didn't pay attention
now I am just a statistic
spending my days in prison

so I am the warning
the example made
live your life off the tracks
with your freedom
you will pay
and there hasn't been a day
I don't regret the decision
that I made
but you never can make right
the mistakes of yesterday
so think carefully......


Well a hour to go
governor denied my appeal
I can't say I blame him
with one loud sound
the gun blasted
thinking came too late
right after....
But I did it
shot a man in cold blood
now I will die
just like the rest of those
who have become hardened
oh I bet they testing the wires
it's time to pay the piper
trial by fire......


so I am the warning
the example made
live your life off the tracks
with your freedom
you will pay
and there hasn't been a day
I don't regret the decision
that I made
but you never can make right
the mistakes of yesterday
so think carefully......
