Had you spared me the hell of watching the whole town turn against me!
Even my friend the schoolmaster
I might've taken the gun for all your sakes
Instead, I stayed in my room
I bolted the door
And I dealt with my fear alone
The moment I knew what this visit was for
I shuddered with fear, I trembled with fear
But I conquered my fear alone
Now it's you who would judge me
And whatever your verdict
I will not complain or resist
What you decide when you judge me
That will be justice
I accept it as justice
But I insist
There must be a trial
I can't spare you the trial
And after the trial is through
For me it will be justice
God knows what it will be for you
