Warden - The Queen Killing Kings

Same old story for the Warden

We’re all innocent men

Tell the state we need pardon

For many things we never did

Tell my wife I’m waiting for parole

Tell my kids I’m not a criminal

When the guards come and pull me from the dark

Take me on a walk out in the yard

Where talking with the Priest and the Doctor, the Warden and the Driver from

the Coroner’s office

Same old story from the warden

Your conviction still stands

Don’t tell me you have forgotten

You killed your wife and your kids

All my nights I’ve waited for their ghosts

To tell them I am not a criminal

And did I go crazy in the dark?

How many years have I been locked up in this place?

Where talking with the Priest and the Doctor, the Warden and the Driver from

the Coroner’s office

And the Guards are taking me to a chamber, room full of strangers

What could this mean?

Everyone was looking ‘round, they watched the clock counting down

What could this be?

Suddenly I start to choke, the room is filling up with smoke

What could this mean?
