Hangman's release
By Lab Rat
Guttural lurch
shackles holding to this moment
From slavery to freedom, a diverge
Staggering haphazard to the reaction of my crime
Step after step, frozen in this moment of time
lost
in the broken spoken words left
dripping off my tongue so soft
Syllables crumbling, definitions loose
I'm unused past the potential of finding
Everything waiting, down the steps of wood scaffolding
in the shade of the
hangman's noose
Its just a short drop to find revelation
After the murmur of my heresy
Purged the sins of the past in one quick stop
Embracing the sentence
Of a short drop
The judgment of my soul, may god have mercy
