Abraxas - Gates To Eden lyrics
[Music: Mindner, M?ller, Klauke, Rohner; Lyrics: Klauke] [Verse 1:] Outside the rain is falling The moon stands pale and cold Somewhere the clock strikes midnight six ours left to go Justice says I'm guilty but is this really true? Governor shows no mercy now the chair waits for me [Bridge 1:] I got a dream a long time ago Visions of my life Terrible deeds I saw in that night violence crime and lies! [Refrain:] There are signs in the sky tomorrow the day I must die Lord stand by me on my last way! (The) circle is closed and the visions turned to truth Now I'm on my way to the gates of Eden [Verse 2:] Sometimes I feel anger about my own life I wouldn't see the danger in those days Steps outside the celldoor coming close to me Sunbeams of the rising dawn makes me fear! [Bridge 2:] I got a dream a long time ago Visions of my life Terrible deeds I saw in that night violence crime and lies! [Bridge 3:] Cold sweat is flowing slowly down on my back The sands of times are running there's no turning back The priest reads the last writes guardian stands beside My blood runs faster now it's time to die! [Bridge 4:] Now I'm leavin' up to another world Maybe a better place to live maybe to sleep [Bridge 5:] Tears rollin' down on my cheeks as my life drifts before me I'm afraid of the coming but no one can hear my silent cries [Bridge 6:] Goodbye Mama goodbye my love Goodbye to the rest of all The time is right for the last farewell Stop from cryin' hide your tears I'm not worth for all those fears Send me a smile before I walk away [Bridge 7:] My heart is drummin' as they lead me to the chair The smilin' face of d**h - I see everywhere Hangman comes closer Last cigarette I can smoke Than he will take the switch to turn my life off [Bridge 1:] I got a dream a long time ago Visions of my life Terrible deeds I saw in that night violence crime and lies! [Refrain:] There's a sign in the sky now it's the hour to die Lord stand by me on my last way! (The) circle is closed and the visions turned to truth Ready to pa** the gates of Eden
