Carry the Cross Lyrics

We walk through the ages
The world on our shoulders
The burden we carry
To the dark end of our days
A thousand eyes watching
every step we are taking
waiting to see us
struggle and fall

And when we are beaten
The cross holds us down
I hear them laughing
And walking away

Carry the Cross
And suffer the loss
Hear my confession
Forever damnation

Reincarnation
Bleeding forever
Recover the pain
Pain gives me strength
Pick up the cross
And carry it on
Over and over
the wheel turns again

And when we are beaten
The cross holds us down
Ihear them laughing
And walking Away

Carry the cross
And suffer the loss
Hearmy confession
Forever damnation

As a man of God I think this is actually the message of Christ, not against it.\nWe must bear the responsibility no matter the cost. \n\nOther bands like In flames do have lyrics that are satanic. Arch might be atheists, but they are mainly anarchistic, which I am also.\n\nHybrids of steel shows how in tune Arch are to the coming of transhumanism. A satanic world movement at its core.\n\nArch have religious friends, but hate religion. Just as I do. Just as Jesus did.\n\nThe world has gone crazy. Nothing is what it seems. Including this song

First time ever commenting on lyrics, but I think this song is about putting with your own issues, dealing up with your own struggles, and just carrying them onward until you die, hence the lyrics "Carry the Cross/And suffer the loss.

That's my opinion anyway.

omg amazing song why only the one comment? i luv this song... had 2 lern it straight away. i think its about a murderer in a graveyard who beats them, and kills them by sticking a cross into them. Then they laugh and walk away. The wheel is perhaps a wheel of fortune. who will be killed next? possible correction:

waiting to see us struggle and fail

not sure about it. it just fits better with this idea.

I think it's anti-christian

I wonder why any time a song has any relavence to religion, people presume it's anti religion? A cross is a big heavy piece of wood. Carrying it would mean carrying a heavy burden, Metaphorically
