You were man but you are God
You were love but you bred hate
Chains on your feet for freedom
You're alive but you are dead
You wash my feet but I'm your slave
Chains upon my heart for joy
Prodigal messiah, I call your name
Let me share the burden of your cross
I can't bear your cross
Benediction or contradiction
I can't bear your cross
A sceptic's grief, truth or belief
My faith in you now has dissolved
All that is left is sharp disdain
For the ones who preach your name
There's no feeling or compassion,
In the eyes of the betrayed,
You're my Judas, taste my condemnation
My feet are heavy, chained is my heart
Spill the blood of my soul on your cross
And now I've fallen
But I don't care
Yet what I see
Is your cold stare
Leaving my soul lost in flame
You were love but you bred hate
Chains on your feet for freedom
You wash my feet but I'm your slave
Chains upon my heart for joy
Let me share the burden of your cross
Benediction or contradiction
I can't bear your cross
A sceptic's grief, truth or belief
All that is left is sharp disdain
For the ones who preach your name
There's no feeling or compassion,
In the eyes of the betrayed,
You're my Judas, taste my condemnation
Spill the blood of my soul on your cross
But I don't care
Yet what I see
Is your cold stare
Leaving my soul lost in flame
