Scream and die - at the gallows pole Where the hanged are singing songs of despair Hope is the last what they have in mind Songs of revolution are hanging in the air The master of death, deep in their mind Stealing their lives and leaving them blind No mercy, no excuse for all of your sins You will die in agony, the evil within Run and hide As long as you can The race is started Let the hangman begin Kill you - at the gallows pole Where the brave find their rest and pray for the dead Ballads are sung and the earth starts to quake The last supper starts for the slaughter you wait Run and hide As long as you can The race is started Let the hangman begin
