Lyrics
0:32Off in the distance
0:34The church bell rings
0:37And the raven spreads his wings
0:42Shadows of steel
0:44Fall silent in the gloom
0:48One last full moon
0:53The future is lost
0:55Payment for the crime
0:58There's no way out this time
1:02No sound from the gallows
1:05No sound from the shadows tall
1:08Only silence till morning
1:10Only silence till
1:11Churchbells toll
1:13No sound from the gallows
1:26You feel the cold of the stone
1:28Below your feet
1:31Now your sorrow is complete
1:36Have your last meal water and bread
1:41As the last rites are read
1:46A new dawn approaches
1:48Take your last breath
1:52You are one step from death
1:56No sound from the gallows
1:59No sound from the shadows tall
2:01Only silence till morning
2:04Only silence till
2:05Churchbells toll
2:07No sound from the gallows
2:42Up to the steps mobs cheer
2:45You on who will cry
2:48When you're gone
2:52Bound hand and foot
2:54The hood is in place
2:57Pray for God's holy grace
3:03Off in the distance
3:05Hear the churchbell ring
3:08Now the angels will sing
3:12No sound from the gallows
3:15No sound from the shadows tall
3:18Only silence till morning
3:20Only silence till
3:21Churchbells toll
3:23No sound from the gallows
Off in the distance The church bell rings And the raven spreads his wings Shadows of steel Fall silent in the gloom One last full moon The future is lost Payment for the crime There's no way out this time No sound from the gallows No sound from the shadows tall Only silence till morning Only silence till Churchbells toll No sound from the gallows You feel the cold of the stone Below your feet Now your sorrow is complete Have your last meal water and bread As the last rites are read A new dawn approaches Take your last breath You are one step from death No sound from the gallows No sound from the shadows tall Only silence till morning Only silence till Churchbells toll No sound from the gallows Up to the steps mobs cheer You on who will cry When you're gone Bound hand and foot The hood is in place Pray for God's holy grace Off in the distance Hear the churchbell ring Now the angels will sing No sound from the gallows No sound from the shadows tall Only silence till morning Only silence till Churchbells toll No sound from the gallows
