Song lyrics Hallowed be thy namez by Iron Maiden

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
´Cause 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 there´s been some sort of an 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 easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears they flow but why am I crying?
After all am I not afraid of dying?
Don´t I believe that there never is 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 ´cause 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

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hallowed be Thy name
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hallowed be Thy name
