So you can heal,
|
They claim with conviction,
|
You've got a crowd.
|
So what's your appeal?
|
Your voice, your predictions,
|
They're getting loud.
|
|
But if I let you die, you must forgive me.
|
|
Raise me up,
|
Up through the ashes,
|
Take me on,
|
Into the light.
|
|
You want to die,
|
Create a sensation,
|
Be making the news.
|
An eye for an eye,
|
King of creation,
|
King of the Jews.
|
|
Before I let you die, you must forgive me.
|
|
Raise me up,
|
Up through the ashes,
|
Take me on,
|
Into the light.
|
|
[Solo]
|
|
Give me sign of remorse,
|
(I don't need your blood,)
|
You will hang on the cross,
|
For playing God.
|
|
You the people must decide:
|
The self-proclaimed prophet,
|
Or the novice murderer.
|
The king or the convict,
|
It's up to you,
|
So tell me who's free to go.
|
|
Raise me up,
|
Up through the ashes,
|
Take me on,
|
Into the light.
|
Raise me up,
|
Up through the ashes,
|
Take me on,
|
Into the light.
