To Hell or the Hangman

I see it in your glance
That you want him
How can I make my peace
With this truth?

The truth is this man
He brings out all
The lust and guilt
Deep within

I'll stand in Hell
And say no same
Witness in this town
Needed proof

Send me to Hell
Or to the gallows
She belongs to the Devil
What could I do?

Do you know what it is to lose?
To be the other man
Who stood no chance
To wake in the morning
To black defeat
Waiting in the wings

Send me to Hell
Or to the gallows

I will have his life for this
And I know that I will pay
With the blood of all my young life
But Gabriel why can't you see?

Cuir gohlfreaing mé
No cuir chun crochta mé
Is leis an Diabhal - Diabhal I
Cad a Jhéadfaing a dthéanand

I was never one for salvation
Nor did I seek your redemption
So I'll do what I have to do
To see out the day
Blood in streams mixed with rain

Damn your love and damn your lies
And now I'll hang by my father's hand
In the square where your first glance
Left my heart in despair
