Dead Man Walking ft. Moonlight Thief Lyrics

I once spoke to death himself

And he told me

My time has come

An empty body

I shall be

When he claims my soul

Oh, when he claims my soul

I said to him that I was scared

And not prepared

And then he said

That everyone

Eventually

Soon or late must

Go

I do not deserve to die

Within the eyes

Of God I smile

I may be alright

For a while

But I will keep on begging

Yeah, I will keep on beggin'

For more

Why am I the one to take

When do the ones

Who make mistakes

More than I

Can ever make

Go to this unforsaken place?

When will they go?

Guess I'm a dead man walking

Slow

I'm just a dead man walking

Slow

I'm just a dead man walking

Slow
