Iron Maiden – Hallowed Be Thy Name Lyrics  Share

From Iron Maiden's album: Number Of The Beast

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 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
[ Hallowed Be Thy Name lyrics from

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 please believe my soul lives on
Please 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
