TESTI DI CANZIONI


HALLOWED BY THY NAME Im waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chimeReflecting on my past life and it doesnt have much timeCos at 5 oclock they take me to the gallows poleThe sands of time for me are running lowWhen the priest comes to read me the last ritesI take a look through the bars at the last sightsOf a world that has gone very wrong for meCan it be theres some sort of errorHard to stop the surmounting terrorIs it really the end not some crazy dreamSomebody please tell me that Im dreamingIts not so easy to stop from screamingBut words escape me when I try to speakTears they flow but why am I cryingAfter all I am not afraid of dyingDont believe that there is never an endAs the guards march me out to the courtyardSomeone calls from a cell God be with youIf theres a God then why has he let me die?As I walk all my life drifts before meAnd though the end is near Im not sorryCatch my soul cos its willing to fly awayMark my words please believe my soul lives onPlease dont worry now that I have goneIve gone beyond to see the truthWhen you know that your time is close at handMaybe then youll begin to understandLife down there is just a strange illusion.
