Shot down in cold blood Didn't know my name No-one understood So I took the blame Where I left my mark When the system fell You were in my grasp Hid behind your veil Bound and abused Branded a liar I have endured Trial by fire Hang me out to dry I broke every rule Fell right in your trap Played me for a fool Catch you safe and sound Tried to make you mine Took this holy vow Then you crossed the line Burden of guilt Branded a liar Falsely accused Trial by fire Committed no crime In my innocence I have endured trial by fire Life is so cruel and unbearable Can't let you get in my way What I need now is a miracle To get through the end of each day Burden of guilt Branded a liar Whipped and abused Trial by fire Committed no crime In my innocence I have endured trial by fire Trial by fire Trial by fire
