These are some neat lyrics. Seems like alot of Jesus-following people tell me how he 'died for me'...how i'm a sinner and i'm lucky he saved me...yet instead of feeling uplifted, i feel guilty and ashamed of who i am. then i look at their little bumper sticker that reads: "WWJD?" And i wonder...would Jesus want to give us a guilt trip? Shame us into some obligated feeling of peace? Or would he help us each find our unique truth that lifts us up?
The lyrics "his blood was shed, its nothing but a fairy tale, some ink on a page..."
I think by fairy tale it means that its literally just a story.
or
By fairy tale it means look at it metaphorically: Writers sometimes say they 'bled ink on a page', maybe the writers of the bible noticed how Jesus would endlessly write and journal, deep from his heart all his knowledge he had, painfull deep writing. So the Bible writers say that he "shed his blood for mankind".
