Nail In My Coffin
Some folks say I'm a wanted man
Hiding behind the lies I told of them
Hang me up upon the hill
And hide in the shadows of the honest man you kill
Take me down from off the tree
Feel the weight of the lies you told of me
Dress me in my finest clothes
Cut your hand on the thorn and leave me with the rose
Put one more nail in my coffin
And hope the truth never gets out
Put one more nail in my coffin
And know you're unforgiven
In the rain the preacher speaks
As they lower me down to the dark, dark, deeps
With me shall some secrets die
But I rest with knowing your lies will haunt your life
Put one more nail in my coffin
And hope the truth never gets out
Put one more nail in my coffin
And know you're unforgiven
When the dust finally settles on my grave
Won't you see that my legacy is kept clean
When the dust finally settles on my grave
Won't you see that my legacy is kept clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Hiding behind the lies I told of them
Hang me up upon the hill
And hide in the shadows of the honest man you kill
Take me down from off the tree
Feel the weight of the lies you told of me
Dress me in my finest clothes
Cut your hand on the thorn and leave me with the rose
Put one more nail in my coffin
And hope the truth never gets out
Put one more nail in my coffin
And know you're unforgiven
In the rain the preacher speaks
As they lower me down to the dark, dark, deeps
With me shall some secrets die
But I rest with knowing your lies will haunt your life
Put one more nail in my coffin
And hope the truth never gets out
Put one more nail in my coffin
And know you're unforgiven
When the dust finally settles on my grave
Won't you see that my legacy is kept clean
When the dust finally settles on my grave
Won't you see that my legacy is kept clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
Won't you keep my legacy clean
