[Q]3rd Verse

(3:10)

As the guardsmarch me out

to the courtyard
somebody
cries from a
cell
God be with you
As I
walk my life
drifts
before
me and though the end
is
near
I'm not
sorry
Mark my
words
believe
my
worry
soul lives on
Don't
now
that I
have
Whenyou know that your time
is
close at
hand
maybe then you'll begin
to understand
