Clue 1:
View attachment 37821

Clue 2:
Thematically, this song is not unique in the Maiden catalogue. It is particularly similar to one of Maiden's most well-known songs.

Clue 3:
The first and last verse mirror one another: Here, two out of the four lines are near identical, and the two verses both describe the same situation.



Charlotte you've taken your guess and you've thrown it away: 22 Acacia Avenue, Chains of Misery, Can I Play With Madness, Fear Is The Key, Satellite 15... The Final Frontier, The Assassin
 
Sign Of The Cross ?

Because of the difference between the 1st verse and the last one :

First verse
"Eleven saintly shrouded men
Silhouettes stand against the sky
One in front with a cross held high
Come to wash my sins away"

Last verse
"Lost the love of heaven above
Chose the lust of the earth below
Eleven saintly shrouded men
Came to wash my sins away"
