"On The Cross" lyrics

"On The Cross"

[Spoken:]
We kill the faggots, we kill the lesbians
I said goddammit we kill them all

We were taught to kneel and bow our heads
I tried simply standing up instead
Heard rumors of transparent legs
And walks for days and days

These days we reach for so much more
We reached the point where we can't go home
Alone we wait here underground
Amidst the others waiting

So pray, then, if it makes you feel safe
But all I can say is we go our own way
We go our own way
So save us

Who would guess you were the chosen one?
The right place, you were the firstborn son
Once questioned stable state of mind
To spend some time in the gutter

A full collapse and caving in
Just wait for faith to kick in
I lost track of time as I stood in line
Amidst the other believers

So pray then, if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go our own way

So pray then, if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go our own way
We go are own way
So save us

Over and over and I still can not believe
We can't save ourselves
Give me a chance up on the cross and watch me bleed
Now ask for help

Having faith in something you can't see
Takes something else
Over and over and I still can not believe
We can save ourselves

So pray that if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go our own way

So pray then, if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go our own way
Send your prayers our way
To save us

[Spoken:]
Kill 'em again cause they didn't die hard enough
