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 5 o'clock they take me to the gallows pole
 
 The sands of time for me are running low
 Motherfuckers
 ♪
 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 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 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
 And 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 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 here is just a strange illusion
 ♪
 Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
 Hallowed be thy name
 Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
 Hallowed be thy name
