hallowed be thy name iron maiden

Image result for hallowed be thy name iron maiden

the song hallowed be thy name is a song peformed by iron maiden called hallowed be thy name
(their guitars are white and black and they look really cool.)

their lyrics:


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 soul cause it's willing to fly away

are possibly one of my favourite lyrics of all time because they are so beautifully written
when the lyrics state "if theres a god then why has he let me go" this speaks so much volume as the lyrics perpetuate the idea that he is alone, he is lost and he is no longer in this idea of being safe with himself, and that he is not safe in the hands of god being the question "Why has he let me go?"

Tears fall but why am I crying?
After all I'm not afraid of dying


these are my favourite lyrics because they speak so much to me, only the people who have been at that edge can relate and this obviously makes me think of suicide, because ideally when the person wants to die they no longer care about anything around then and feel like nobody else does, in a way they don't want to die so they're crying and they want to be saved but also because it's got to this point where they can only contemplate their life.

I think my audience for my blog will like this because iron maiden and more or so relate to their music and iron maidens songs are so legendary their lyrics are so compassionate and emotional.
