The Prophet - Matthew Nightingale lyrics

He stood accused with no burden of proof For the crime and he'd pay Think how you might feel Walking one last mile Naked to the world As you stand on trial Knowing you can't win But still you fight Like a friend of mine Who fought and died Matthew Nightingale Someone says you've been Where you've never been And you've gone and done What you never did But just try to prove You're innocent When the judge already Went and said Matthew Nightingale (it's the end for you) Matthew Nightingale (?) Matthew Nightingale (Lord, what can we do?) The verdict was read Matthew stepped back Looked the people straight in the eye And then he started to laught I begged him to plead It was self defense But before I stopped Matthew laughed again Like he seemed to see A kind of joke Only fools or wisemen Ever know Matthew Nightingale (just which one are you) Matthew Nightingale (Matthew died for truth) Matthew Nightingale (and he died for you) Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale Matthew Nightingale
