The Judgment

The words are the thunder, the thought is the lightning
 The telling of the tale is the storm
 The defendant must be guilty as he waits impatiently
 As the wooden stake is driven
 And the angel sounds the horn
 The cornered Lion is not within the realm of reason
 Fear is like the cracking of the lash
 You want to run, you want to fight
 Lightning flashes in the night
 You finally turn away to hide your face
 As the judges file in to take their places
 You got to hold your ground
 Hold your ground like a man
 Sometimes you've just got to hold your ground
 When the truth has finally been tasted
 You can tell them all their time has not been wasted
 The words are the thunder, the thought is the lightning
 The telling of the tale is the storm
 The defendant must be guilty as he waits impatiently
 As the wooden stake is driven
 And the angel sounds the horn
 You got to hold your ground
 Hold your ground like a man
 Sometimes you've just got to hold your ground
 When the truth has finally been tasted
 You can tell them all their time has not been wasted
 Hold your ground
 Hold your ground like a man
 Sometimes you've just got to hold your ground
 You got to hold your ground
 Hold your ground
 Hold your ground
 Hold your ground
