I could be he was saying the lords prayer just before he dies. I would proberly make it worse if they were being hung at 5 AM.Īlso they would proberly leave the body on the rope to scare the other prisioners. Thats what i think Its five in the morning.Ītvarussmak Posted: Mar 12 2004, 10:36 AM I'm not sure what the significance is in relation to the song. "Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name" and so on. Hallowed Be Thy Name refers to the Our Father prayer, I suppose.

This theory came when I realize that Bruce give a more relaxed mood in the second phrase, instead of the rage in the first one. Also he realizes that dying he will be joining God, his is going to be better there, outside that world that has gone so wrong for him. But in the second "Hallowed Be Thy Name" his realizes that his death is not God's fault. His is really anger with the almighty Lord that has left him die in such a stupid way. In the first "Hallowed Be Thy Name" the guy is mockering God. The Third and most absurd theory : This came to mind lately. So he say Hallowed Be Thy Name in the honor of God. The Honor Theory : The guy accept his fate and really don't care about this world anymore (saints and sinners. So Hallowed Be Thy Name" His mockering, leaving the guilt of his murder to God So saying this is almost like saying "Hey look at me you bastard, look to what have you done. The Mockery Theory : The guy in the song thinks God has betrayed him. What are the meaning of this words ? Why Hallowed Be Thy Name ? The people had worked all day long and in the end of the day they'll have some fun watching the "heretic" die.
However, since for me at least, the song has a medieval mood, is very possible that the time is Five PM. The guy in the song has spent the whole night thinking of his life and so. Is there a way to know the exactly time ? I mean, since i'm a brazilian guy who has not the cultural knowledegment that living with the idiom gives, I believe that YOU guys can tell my what was the exactly time. What time will be the hang ? Will it be at FIVE AM OR FIVE PM ? However, there are two questions stuck in my head. It's not needed to say how wonderful this song is.
what i did was copy all the posts that delt with the song so it can be discussed again. this is a great song and a good discussion was going on before getting sidetracked. This thread was started in the "General" forum but quickly ignored.
