Again, I sit in this room
Watching the walls close in
Especially in the evening gloom
Is this how I pay for another’s sin
I took the blame
To shelter another
From the shame
But it still broke the heart of my mother
Why did you kill that man?
I wonder every day, every night
Why won’t you tell me how it began
So, I might see what you did was right
You came to me in tears
And turned me into a gangster
Now I rot in jail for years
But I had to protect you my sister.
