So here we are again, it's like déjà vu Everyone lookin' at me tryin' to work out if I've been telling the truth The courtroom's the same, but the jury's changed And the judge is a she not a he still they all look the same to me, yeah It's just like it was, when I was here before 'Cept my ex ain't here in the gallery showin' me support And that breaks my heart, 'cos I love her no doubt Still I know a song, I can sing if I ever get out But the chances of that even with this new evidence Comin' to light don't change the fact An innocent man went down first time, man I'd be a fool to put my faith in them Only to be misplaced again, I remember how my heart felt breakin' then It don't wanna feel that hate again, just do your worst 'cos it won't break again
You can set me free or bang me up Just stop torturin' me tell me what you're gonna do, what you gonna do You can set me free or bang me up Just stop torturin' me tell me what you're gonna do, what you gonna do
Yeah I've been through the wars, up in that jail What you got to do is look at the scars on my face to know that I've been through hell But I'm still breathin', yeah that's right I'm still here I survived through the darkest days in the darkest place from my darkest fears Ain't nothin' you can do to me, ain't already done 'cept shootin' me And people havin' a pop ain't nothin' new to me, that's what used to go on usually When I stay too long in one place, will I get this new face by many more fights How different would things be now, if I'd just made it home that night Ain't even worth thinkin' about, what's done is done, you can't change the past Just please stop torturin' me and make a decision that's all I ask 'Cause I'm ready to accept my fate, whatever the outcome of this case The only thing I can't stand is the wait, so hurry up already and decide today
You can set me free or bang me up Just stop torturin' me tell me what you're gonna do, what you gonna do You can set me free or bang me up Just stop torturin' me tell me what you're gonna do, what you gonna do
So what you gonna do, when you gonna make up your minds I've been here for hours now and I still ain't got a clue what you got in line Are you gonna send me back through the prison gates like you did before Or are you gonna set me free and let me live my life and know the score I'm sick sittin' here listenin' through this girl with the lies when I know the truth And I always have, she has too, the only people left to convince is you The jury's out on me, once again, whats new And now I'm past caring what fate they choose for me Just do what it is you're gonna do and do it soon so I can get up out this room
You can let me go, you can let me rot Wait for parole, wanna do the rest of the years I've got You can cut me loose, or you can bang me up 'Cause to tell the truth, I don't really give a fuck
