lyrics

I remember that day
Just like it was yesterday

Was it only weeks ago?
We went to that funeral

We heard the will
And tears were spilled

While we divvied up the bones,
They barred the doors
On the Sunbeams Court

And if they call you to the stand
I will be right there, holding your hand
In the Hellmouth there's no wrong or right
So just take my hand, and hold on tight
And we might
survive
this court tonight

We stood accused
Our crimes could not be excused:

We'd no remorse
For our part in the Bonecourse

We'd killed our Captain
We'd let it happen

I think we knew right then
we could never win,
Judged by our Sins

So when they call you to the stand
I will be right there, holding your hand
In the Hellmouth there's no wrong or right
So just take my hand, and hold on tight
And we might
survive
this court tonight

The defense did their best
Our innocence they professed

But then the judge was on the stand
And then somehow, Sunman (Sunman?!)

We'd hoped justice would prevail
But it'd long gone off the rails

Time bleeding away, had to speak my heart
Before we were torn apart

Well I said what I said and I meant it
Disrupting the court was never what I intended
But seeing you there on the stand
with your hand extended..

I had to be by your side
Even as all hope for mercy died

I was finally freed
From that ol' ring of greed

Too little too late
They'd sealed our fate

With your hand in mine, our last farewell
We were Guilty as Hell

And I remember that terrible sound
When the Executioner's axe came down
Those puppetmasters had their day in court,
They'd pulled their strings and we'd come up short

But in the Hellmouth there's no wrong or right
So just take my hand, and hold on tight
In the light
of the sun
so brutal and bright

This court's on fire, but here I stand
Just you and me, holding hands
Anyone could see, the whole trial was a sham
But what's real, is us, holding hands
