The Killing Ground
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A thief on the left and one on the right
Up on the hill about twilight
One lived forever, the other died
While a thorny head hung to one side
Two got to heaven from The Killing Ground
When the Lord gets ready, the whip comes down
Two men accused of breaking the law
Up on the side of Golgotha
One man accused of being a king
That's the saddest song I'll ever sing
Two got to heaven from The Killing Ground
When the Lord gets ready the whip comes down
