Depeche Mode - The Worst Crime lyrics

There's a lynching in the square

You will have to join us

Everyone's going to be there

We're setting up the truss

Once there were solutions

Now we have no excuses

It got lost in confusion

So we're preparing the nooses

And oh, we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?

Blame misinformation, misguided leaders

Apathetic hesitation, uneducated readers

For whatever reasons we now find ourselves in this

We are all charged with treason

And there's no one left to hear

And oh, we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?

We're the judge and the jury

The hangman, the convict

It's too late for fury

Our indictment was hand-picked

So step out to the gallows

And accept your sentence

For being so shallow

You must pay a penance

And oh, we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?

And oh, we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?
