I’ll Say My Words

[Verse 1]
I'll say my words
Try to make 'em brief
But this one thing, let's make clear
It may surprise
A few of you to know
This ain't no song of despair

[Verse 2]
For I've lived a life
[?]
I ventured many a proud mile
Laugh with the wind
Talk with the sky
Even made a few people smile

[Verse 3]
And I don't regret
This thing I've done
The [?] certain and plain
Thus, I took the life
Of a man twice my age
For reasons I will not explain

[Verse 4]
And now you say for my deed
Done most murderously
I've fallen subject to pain
For no-one has thе right to take a human life
And then you'rе hangin' there
Some time today

[Verse 5]
And then you say as she does her
Few humble words
Which my experience can share
So that a few other
Wandering souls
Might [?] this sad cross I bear

[Verse 6]
Well, let's say
I'm only twenty-one years of age
I'll offer this good advice:
You can do what your father
Tells you to do
And treat your mother and girlfriend nice
