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    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 error  Hard to stop  The  Surmounting terror  Is it really the end  Of some crazy dream    Somebody please  Tell me  That I'm dreaming  It's not so easy  To stop  From screaming  The words escape me  When i try to speak  Tears 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  All my life  Drifts before me  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    When you know  That your time  Is close at han  Maybe  Then you'll begin  To understand  Life down here  Is just  A strange illusion    these lyrics are submitted by machine head fan
