"Man Of Conviction" lyrics

The Get Up Kids Lyrics

"Man Of Conviction"

God bless here's a man of conviction
With evidence enough to convict him
So he stands by the side of the victim
And has strength enough to forgive him

Hopefully nobody saw him
Hopefully nobody saw him
Means justified by the ending
Is the sinner and saint for defending

The bastard by him that is bleeding
Throws salt in the wounds of the needy
And the blood from the cut that is seething
And he gasps for the air we are breathing

Hopefully nobody saw him
Hopefully nobody saw him
Means justified by the ending
Is the sinner and saint for defending

Our hero is gone

God bless here's a man of conviction
With evidence enough to convict him
So he stands by the side of the victim
And has strength enough to forgive him

The bastard by him that is bleeding
Throws salt in the wounds of the needy
And the blood from the cut that is seething
And he gasps for the air we are breathing

Hopefully nobody saw him
Hopefully nobody saw him
The means justified by the ending
Is the sinner and saint for defending
