Until the End Lyrics


No one knows who gave the orders, no one asks about the crime
No one looks behind the curtain and no one questions why
The only time we've got is right about now
I cross my heart, I take the vowI'll never turn, I'll never bend
I'm with you now until the endTonight's the test, tonight's the time
I am the punishment that fits the crime
I'll break the bricks, I'll pick the locks
I don't got nothin' but I'll give what I gotI'll never turn, I'll never bend
I'm with you now until the endTen trials whose outcomes all fixed from the start
Nine judges sitting counting their money in the dark
Eight towers of iron surround the desert town
On a cold December morning, seven martyrs knocked them downSix fathers still waiting for their six sons to come home
Five mothers who know better and accept that they're gone
Four years I've been hunted, still I breathe free
Three times I shot the sheriff and did not spare the deputyTwo prayers I'm praying until we're together
One promise I'm keeping tonight and foreverI'll never turn, I'll never bend
I'm with you now until the endI'll never turn, I'll never bend
I'm with you now until the end

He has explained, "The Nightwatchman is my political folk alter ego. I've been writing these songs and playing them at open mic nights with friends for some time. This is the first time I've toured with it. When I play open mic nights, it's announced as The Nightwatchman.
