Sitting, sitting, in a cell,
Waiting for the end.
Sitting, shifting, eyes closed tight,
With wounds that just won't mend.

Sitting, sitting, in a cell,
Hands tied behind my back.
Sitting, sighing, courage gone,
The one thing that I lack.

Sitting, sitting, in a cell,
Convicted of my crime.
Sitting, dreaming of escape,
But running out of time.

Sitting, sitting, in a cell,
As dawn quickly draws near.
Sitting, crying silent tears.
Words can't express my fear.

Sitting, sitting, in a cell,
With death minutes away.
Sitting, praying one last time.
I won't live through the day.

Sitting, sitting, in a cell,
No longer must I wait.
Sitting- no, not anymore.
I stand to meet my fate.
