Hallowed Be Thy Name Lyrics - Number Of The Beast - Iron Maiden

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 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 an error 

Hard to stop the surmounting terror 

Is it really the end not some crazy dream?

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

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 am not afraid of dying 

Don't I believe that there never is 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 go? 

As I walk all my life drifts before me 

And though the end is near I'm not sorry 

Catch my soul 'cause 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 

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

Yeah, yeah, yeah, 

Hallowed be Thy name 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, 

Hallowed be Thy name
