Janie's an addict but then she feeds her family
|
Hank owns a bank but his kids are on the street
|
Janie's got a good grip on desperation
|
While Hank's getting fat but he doesn't see his need
|
|
As I'm standing here on this stage
|
Hanging from a cross that I have made
|
What you see is probably deceit
|
Only God knows the difference
|
The difference between preachers and thieves
|
|
Rosa's the lady in apartment fifteen
|
No one knows her name or what language she speaks
|
Or that her son is dying alone behind those walls
|
Separating their home from the apartments she cleans
|
|
And as I'm standing here on this stage
|
Hanging from a cross that I have made
|
What you see is probably deceit
|
Only God knows the difference
|
The difference between preachers and thieves
|
Preachers and thieves
|
|
Struggling to stand and fighting to breathe
|
One cries to His left and one dies to His right
|
One takes his last breath embracing his mockery
|
While the other opens his eyes in paradise
|
|
As I'm standing here on this stage
|
Hanging from a cross that I have made
|
What you see is probably deceit
|
Only God knows the difference
|
The difference between preachers and thieves
|
