There's a gate with a lock and two high walls
All around me are all - seeing eyeballs
And there's a guard with a gun should I run
Should I run, should I run
There's a small patch of grass that I've handled
Through the gaps in the bars left a candle
And there's a lapse when the guards switch their watches
No one watches, no one wathces
O Lament, O lament - my Savior awaits me there
O Lament, O lament - why if I die should I care?
There's a day I remember so clearly
It's the day when the Spirit moved near me
And there's unfinished work to attend to
To attend to: I intend to
There's a night that I chose for a reason
It's got to do with the moon and the season
But there's a guard wit ha gun should I run
Should I run, should I run?
O Lament...
There's a shot ringing out from the tower
Now I'm drawn to the ground by some power
And there's a light through it's long past the hour
