I gave you love, you gave me pain,
I am a life you cannot sustain.
you took me as a crown of thorns
off you bleeding brow,
you planted me as a tree,
in the fruitless ground.
So take your nails, and knives to me,
thrust the spear into my side.
Take my life, and give me hate
I know that you have lied.
Hammer the nails through my wrists,
and make my place secure,
upon this cross, crucify me
safe from you and yours.
I've wept bitter tears of blood
from my soul, I’ve been whipped for your sins,
I’m not a Christ, just a man,
I am my only fathers son,
so kill me now before you learn,
the truth I know, that all is one.
One in spirit, one in truth,
raised by nature from innocent youth,
so lead me to the Calvary,
and end my too full misery.
So take the flail, and beat my back
destroy the truth you try to hide.
Take my life, and give me the hate
I know that you have lied.
Hammer the nails through my wrists and make my place secure.
Upon the cross crucify me
safe from you and yours
The wounds have healed
and time passes by
stay safe in the mucky truth
the life you live
the pain you give
within the rift
between your truth, and my lie.
