作词 : Harris
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 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 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
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 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

Hallowed be thy name
Hallowed be thy name
Hallowed be thy name
Hallowed be thy name
