Screaming through the iron bars
Knowing the time is running out
Here they come to make their day
Lead me through the roaring crowd
I'm waiting for the toll of the bell
The people cast their stones and yell
I look at the hangman dressed in black
I'm scared to die, can I come back?
The rope is scratching my skin
The trap-door's moving under my feet
I realize the situation I'm in
A last wish is what I need
So, my life comes to an end
I hope there's more beyond this land
Say a prayer, so I can forgive
So here I go, my final whiff
Live to die, where the soul goes on
When the body is gone, die to live
It's a place like in a dream
There's no rank among the dead
We died together in one big stream
You meet the people you've never met
Only place left for a few
If you lived your life maybe for you
But I know my place, I know my name
So it can never be the same
Live to die, for evermore out of sight
In a city of light, die to live
Live to die, this eternal night
For those who died, die to live
