Cradle Of Filth - 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...Running low...When the priest comes to read me the last rights;I take a look through the bars at the last sights;Of a world that has gone very wrong for me...Could it be that there's some sort of error?Hard to stop the surmounting terror;Is it really the end or some crazy dream?Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming;It's not easy to stop from screaming;Words escape me when I try to speak...Tears, they flow; but why am I crying?After all, I'm not afraid of dying;Do not beleive that there never is an end...As the guards bring me out to the courtyard;Somebody crys from a cell, "God be with you!"If there's a god then why does 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, 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...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
