The river shows no mercy
The tower looms into my view
I sense my execution's closing
With darkness all around me
The axe is ground to end my days
The raven's cry proclaims repentance
Out of the dark - Into the light
Leaving my mark - Free from the traitors gate
Into the storm - I'm gonna win
Killer of sin - Saved by the traitors gate
A man betrayed for treason
I only wanted what was right
To bring a purpose by rebellion
The storm is soon arriving
And rain will wash away my blood
This walk of death will bring survival
Out of the dark - Into the light
Leaving my mark - Free from the traitors gate
Ready to die - Carry the day
Bury the lie - Tear down the traitors gate
Forgive me for my sins
I meant no harm to you
So let the axe man fall
To justify what I begin

Where will you be tomorrow
Now they've removed this mortal coil
I hope and pray I bring you freedom
For honour God and country
This world can be a better place
As I ascend from my conviction
Out of the dark - Into the light
Leaving my mark - Free from the traitors gate
River of blood - Turning the tide
Cause of the flood - Destroying the traitors gate
Out of the dark - Into the light
Leaving my mark - Free from the traitors gate
Losing my head - Blunt of the axe
Alive when I'm dead - Escape from the...
Traitors Gate!
