3 Lyrics

I often wonder why I sit and wait to die
What have I done to justify the sentence they gave?
Too many hours spent in darkness questioning
How and why?
I can't remember many moments in the light
This retribution has defiled me to no end
An execution without merit looms ahead
Tell me why!
I was a boy who had to live his own way
I never fit into the model they had designed
I chose a path less taken
I stood with others who had often felt the same
We got stares from passersby
Our dark attire seemed to frighten people away
And when the three young boys died
They pointed fingers and entangled us in a lie!
No hope in sight
Chorus:

I sit here terrified!
Can't someone try to bring the truth to light?
Won't anybody open up their eyes?
Before the three of us have lost our lives!
Why was everybody so damn afraid?
They blamed the devil for the heinousness of the crime
And to justify their own faith
We were labeled pawns of Satan for a time
The three of us were attacked and disgraced
For many hours we were questioned and someone lied
One of us couldn't take it
His simple manner was manipulated in kind
Fear made him lie
Chorus
Now I am terrified!
Can't someone try to bring the truth to light?
Won't anybody open up their eyes?
Before the three of us have lost our lives!
And Why?
Can't anybody see through their disguise?!
Only believe we didn't take their lives!
And now the three of us have lost our lives
I often wonder why I sit and wait to die
What have I done to justify the sentence they gave?
Too many hours spent in darkness questioning
How and why?
I can't remember many moments in the light
This retribution has defiled me to no end
An execution without merit looms ahead
Tell me why

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Dominic Frasca: 'Deviations'

Dominic Frasca is a classically-trained guitar virtuoso, originally from Akron, Ohio but now living in New York City. He is probably best known for his customized ten-string guitar, which allows him to create a unique, layered-sound normally only accomplishable using multiple instruments or post-recording techniques such as overdubbing.

Frasca's technique incorporates classical guitar technique in the right hand as well as rock techniques such as tapping, hammer-ons, and pull-offs. "All my inspiration comes from ensembles," Frasca says. "Most notably The Philip Glass Ensemble, Steve Reich and Musician, Anthony Davis and Episteme, The Who, The Astor Piazzolla Quintet, and Led Zeppelin to name a few." As a performer, Frasca has also been known to challenge the traditional notion of a concert by incorporating amplification (not typical in a classical guitar concert), visuals, talking with the audience, and telling jokes on stage. "It always bothered me that when I would go to a classical guitar concert I would often leave knowing nothing about the person I just spent two hours listening to. I want people to know who I am and I want to know who my audience is- the most fundamental way that people communicate is by discovery."

Frasca is currently signed with Canataloupe Music and has released one album, entitled Deviations."

Frasca has also opened a small, high-tech, surround-sound nightclub in NYC named The Monkey, which he has described as "a space that is all about the music, the sound and the visuals, not about selling drinks." The performance space is set on the 12th floor of a building. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
