Hallowed Be Thy Name (Live) by 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, yeah
The sands of time for me are running low...

When the priest comes to (1)________ me the last rites
I take a look through the (2)________ at the last sights
Of a world that has (3)________ very wrong for me

Hard to (4)________ the surmounting terror
Is it really the end, not (5)________ crazy dream?

It's not easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak

Tears fall but why am I crying?
After all I'm not afraid of dying
Don't I (6)______________ 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 all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my (7)________ 'cause it's willing to fly away

Mark my words please believe my soul lives on
Don't worry now (8)________ I have gone
I've gone beyond to see the truth

When you know (9)________ your time is close at hand
Maybe (10)________ you'll begin to understand
Life down here is just a strange illusion

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Hallowed be thy name

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Hallowed be thy name...

Yeah....
