Dead to Rights Songtext
von For Today

I stood, with terror flowing through my veins
Before a judge that could see past the white mask that hid my shame
With terror flowing through my veins
All of heaven and earth hid themselves from His face
And wrath is all I could see
As I looked back over my faded memories
I sold my soul
And lost my destiny
I let selfish ambition get the best of me
Exposed for my arrogance
And justice demands my conviction


Dead to rights
He took my place and saved my life
He had me dead to rights
He took my place and saved my life
There was no way out for me
I had blood on my hands
Guilty! Guilty!
Blood on my hands
Guilty! Guilty!

Alone, I turned to hear my advocate saying
"Father, forgive him. My blood is sufficient for him"
Though I had nothing left to give
It had already been given as perfect provision
So, gladly, I gave my life
To the only One who could save my life

Dead to rights
He took my place and saved my life
He had me dead to rights
He took my place and saved my life

("And the sea gave up the dead which were in it)
(And death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them:)
(And they were judged, every man according to their works)
(And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire)
(This is the second death.")
(Revelation 20: 13-14)


No one is innocent
There is hope, but what if no one is listening?
No one is innocent
There is hope, but what if no one is listening?
This is the second death
No one is innocent
This is the second death
No one is innocent
This is the second death
