"The Messiah Complex" lyrics

"The Messiah Complex"

Look, there it is, can you believe it?
Glory arise, leave to wonder
"Feed of my hand, I'm the dealer"
Many will come, saying, "I am the prophet"

Son of man
Matthew spoke to the lost and the damned

Soul on parole
Soul on parole

The gospel itself lacks an author
The urge to believe must be human

Son of man
Saints go marching in, we're saved

Soul on parole
Soul on parole

"It's a sign", King Herod replied
"A massacre's needed in order to withhold the throne
Oh, my Bethlehem
I will reign in blood until my enemies are slain"

A sign that suffers is due to rejection
A mind that thinks of its own
Judgement's upon you, the kingdom of Heaven
Is found at the stairs of a church
Listen, Messiah, for I'm only human
How much for a chair by the throne?
The second coming and resurrection
In other words, you're not alone

Ooh, I submit
Fate has got me this far
Now I need to receive
Would you guide my way if I believe?

Soul on parole
Soul on parole
Soul on parole
Soul on parole
Soul on parole
Soul on parole
