Lyrics

There was a drive-by Sunday night
Most of us were in bed, alright
I turned down the light
Then I heard the sirens interrupt the silence

Is this what you wished, to commit a crime?
Is this what you wished, to commit a crime?
Is this what you wished, to commit a crime, commit a crime, commit a crime?

He was a nice guy, really bright
Making money's hard to do right
Guilty was his plight
Now he's in a jail cell for some thirty years now

Is this what you wished, to be serving time?
Is this what you wished, to be serving time?
Is this what you wished, to be serving time, serving time, serving time?

K's a friend of mine
I think about him as he does time
Miss his white wine
Funny, I don't feel free even though it's not me

Is this what you wished, to leave me behind?
Is this what you wished, to leave me behind?
Is this what you wished, to leave me behind, me behind, me behind?

Last year, they decided
That his time was up and then he got retried
Double homicide
Sent him onto death row, not to hang around, though

Is this what you wished, did you wanna die?
Is this what you wished, did you wanna die?
Is this what you wished, did you wanna die, wanna die, wanna die?
Did you wanna die, wanna die, wanna die, wanna die?
Did you wanna die?
