Hang on slave far beyond the grave Gods children say someday we'll meet him again Faith, guilt, rage turn back the page The blood of Judas runs all through your veins Someday we'll meet him again
A million miles away In a land where the wisemen prayed For heavens sake oh, watch what you say 'Cause I believe anyway The world is going insane for now and ever
Hang on slave burn down the gates of armageddon How long must we wait until we meet him again
A million miles away Take a vow to your master of fate On judgement day oh, watch what you say I don't believe anyway unlock your morals in chains For now and ever it's for now and ever
He walked into the room With a gleam in his eye Fortelling what was to come He slowly drank from a chalice And broke the unleavened bread The congregation stood in awe As a light from above shone on this man And as the heavens parted he looked up to say Beam me up scotty
Hang on slave far beyond the grave Pain and guilt and rage Break down the gates
When the heavens start to wake And the earth begins to shake Better learn how to repent It's your only hope my friend Burning ashes start to rain On the children of the flame
