Hallowed Be Thy Name
Lyrics
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 five o'clock they take me to the gallows pole
The sands of time for me are running low
Motherfuckers
Running low
When the priest come's to read me the last rites
I take 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 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'm not afraid of dying
Don't I believe that there never is an end?
As the guards march me out of the courtyard
Someone calls from a cell, "God be with you"
If there's an god, why has he let me die?
As I walk, my life drifts before me
And though the end is near, I'm not sorry
Catch my soul, it's willing fly away
Mark my words, believe my soul lives on
Don't worry now that I have gone
I've gone beyond to seek the truth
So 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
Oh, hallowed be thy name
Oh, hallowed be thy name
