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, yeah   The sands of time for me are running low, running low      When the priest comes to read me the last rites   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 easy to stop from screaming   But words escape me when I try to speak      Tears fall 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 to the courtyard   Somebody cries from a cell, 'God be with you'   If there's a God then why has He let me go?      As I walk my life drifts before me   Though the end is near I'm not sorry   Catch my soul, it's willing to fly away      Mark my words, believe my soul lives on   Don't worry now I have gone   Gone beyond to seek the truth, yeah, yeah      When you know that your time is close at hand   Maybe then you'll begin to understand   Life down here is just a strange illusion      Yeah, hallowed be thy name   Yeah, hallowed be thy name   Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
