Lyrics
0:12I'm waiting in my cold cell
0:17When the bell begins to chime
0:24Reflecting on my past life
0:29And it doesn't have much time
0:35Cos at 5 o'clock they take me
0:40To the Gallows Pole
0:47The sands of time
0:50For me are running low
1:37When the priest comes to read me the last rites
1:39I take a look through the bars at the last sights
1:42Of a world that has gone
1:43Very wrong for me
1:46Can it be that there's some sort of error
1:49Hard to stop the surmounting terror
1:51Is it really the end not some crazy dream
1:56Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
1:58It's not so easy to stop from screaming
2:00But words escape me when I try to speak
2:05Tears they flow but why am I crying
2:07After all I am not afraid of dying
2:10Don't believe that there is never an end
3:10As the guards march me out to the courtyard
3:12Someone calls from a cell God be with you
3:14If there's a God then why has he let me die
3:19As I walk all my life drifts before me
3:22And though the end is near I'm not sorry
3:23Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away
3:28Mark my words believe my soul lives on
3:31Don't worry now that I have gone
3:33I've gone beyond to see the truth
3:38When you know that your time is close at hand
3:40Maybe then you'll begin to understand
3:43Life down there is just a strange illusion
6:29Hallowed be thy name
6:30Hallowed be thy name
6:34Hallowed be thy name
6:40Hallowed be thy name
I'm waiting in my cold cell When the bell begins to chime Reflecting on my past life And it doesn't have much time Cos at 5 o'clock they take me To the Gallows Pole The sands of time For me are running low When the priest comes to read me the last rites I take a look through the bars at the last sights Of a world that has gone Very wrong for me Can it be that there's some sort of error Hard to stop the surmounting terror Is it really the end not some crazy dream Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming It's not so easy to stop from screaming But words escape me when I try to speak Tears they flow but why am I crying After all I am not afraid of dying Don't believe that there is never an end As the guards march me out to the courtyard Someone calls from a cell God be with you If there's a God then why has he let me die As I walk all my life drifts before me And though the end is near I'm not sorry Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away Mark my words believe my soul lives on Don't worry now that I have gone I've gone beyond to see the truth When you know that your time is close at hand Maybe then you'll begin to understand Life down there is just a strange illusion Hallowed be thy name Hallowed be thy name Hallowed be thy name Hallowed be thy name
