Dead Man Walking is a 1995 American drama film directed by Tim Robbins, who adapted the screenplay from the non-fiction book of the same name. It tells the story of Sister Helen Prejean (played by Susan Sarandon), who establishes a special relationship with Matthew Poncelet (played by Sean Penn), a prisoner on death row in Louisiana.
Matthew Poncelet (Sean Penn) has been in prison six years, awaiting his execution by lethal injection for killing a teenage couple. Poncelet, located in the Louisiana State Penitentiary, committed the crimes with a man named Carl Vitello (Michael Cullen), who received life imprisonment. As the day of his execution comes closer and closer, Poncelet asks Sister Helen to help him with a final appeal.
She decides to visit him, and he comes across as arrogant, sexist, and racist, not even pretending to feel any kind of remorse. Instead he affirms his innocence, insisting it was Vitello who killed the two teenagers. Convincing an experienced attorney to take on Poncelet's case pro bono, Sister Helen tries to obtain life imprisonment for Poncelet. Over time, after many visits, she establishes a special relationship with him. At the same time, she gets to know Poncelet’s mother (Roberta Maxwell) and the victims’ families. The families do not understand Sister Helen's efforts to help Poncelet, claiming she is "taking his side." Instead they desire "absolute justice," namely his life for the lives of their children.

Genres: Horror, Short,push it away
cold in the land of grey
suck it all in
i'm watchin them cringe
damn what a waste
boy's got that perscription taste
he's dying away
look at him fabe
there has to be another way
the aftermath is devastating
writhing, leave me medicating
the hating, the horror
haunts my day
if I can get a chance to brush off this decay
who gives a fuck
gimme what i need
another dose
and i stop shaking tonight
(pull myself up off the floor )
kneel down and exorcise (2x)
1(prepare for what's in store)
2.im resurrecting
lock it away
beneath the pain
beneath the insane
take it all in
I'll take the blame
pushing the grave
the cancer radiates in her face
you ruined my stay
so I'll destroy the faith
there has to be another way
I'm in the rubble contemplating
the pills, that thrills
killing not aiding
hating the horror
that haunts my day [ I think its droughts actually ]
if I could get another chance
I'd probably throw it away
who gives a fuck
gimme what i need
another dose
I'll resurrect
for all to see
and death to those
who forsaken me
and i stop shaking tonight
(pull myself up off the floor )
kneel down and exorcise (2x)

2.im resurrecting
dead man walkin' baby
call 'em how I see 'em
killin' time killin' pain baby
but instead you're killin' me...
back away
from the pain
its inasne
and I'll throw away
all the things that sting
so back away
its okay
you're a stain
and now you'll rot away
it's sickening
and i stop shaking tonight
(pull myself up off the floor )
kneel down and exorcise (2x)
