Lyrics:

The jury found the verdict first degree
They swore I planned her death to be
I prayed they'd sentence me to die
But they wanted me to live and I know why
So I do life in prison for the wrongs I've done
And I'll pray every night for death to come
My grief for her will last a long, long time
I'd rather die than live to lose my mind

Insane with rage, I took my darling's life
Because I loved her more than life
My life will be a burden every day
If I could die, my pain might go away
But I've got life in prison for the wrongs I've done
And I'll pray every night for death to come
My grief for her will last a long, long time
I'd rather die than live to lose my mind
