A paid killer, a brave sinner
Cheating the hangman !
Judge, jury, tormenter
A paid killer, a brave sinner
Cheating the hangman !
Nowhere to hide
A felon's got to die
You feel your blood pumping in your veins
He's coming after you, the braided rope is in his hands
You had the right idea, to try and run away
But the hangman's coming, you'll live to die another day
You run, you hide, you try
The ax is on his side
You plea, you beg, you cry
There's no pity in his eyes
You run, you hide, you try
It's too late to apologize
He swings, he cuts, you die
From the hands of the hangman
A paid killer, a brave sinner
Cheating the hangman !
Judge, jury, tormenter
A paid killer, a brave sinner
Cheating the hangman !
Nowhere to hide
A felon's got to die
You run, you hide, you try
Your head is rolling by
You plea, you beg, you cry
Your evil fades away
You run, you hide, you try
Your sins have died today
He swings, he cuts, you die

Very good album, slowly unveiling itself the more you listen to it. It's got a very nice Mgła vibe to it, meaning short and simple riffs, carried by a near perfect mix and mastering. Especially the second track which really reminds me of the second track of Mgła's "Exercises in futility". Can't wait to listen to the next album :) Grigou
