Lyrics Crushed by the Cross - Gwar

Crushed by the Cross

Entangled within your life, you fight, cannot escape its grasp
Commands you to repent or burn eternal for your past
Surrender them your body as they wish to rule what grows inside
Hiding the simple truth there’s nothing for you when you die
Your rights denied BY THE CROSS
You fail to see the lies IT’S YOUR LOSS
You will be crushed BY THE CROSS
Your life is crushed BY THE CROSS
Your flesh and blood pissed away and used as a bargaining chip
A poorly played hand in a game of political brinksmanship
The articles of their faith are (fucking) rife with hypocrisy
Your body striped with scars inflicted by theocracy
Your rights denied BY THE CROSS
You fail to see the lies IT’S YOUR LOSS
You will be crushed BY THE CROSS
Your life is crushed BY THE CROSS
Our souls matter not
Though crucial to the plot
They coerce us to comply
Trade our lives for their lie
…And so we’ll be bred
Pumping out life until we are dead
We reach out for support
You cut us off at the fucking cord
(You will be branded)
Crushed by the cross
Your rights denied BY THE CROSS
You fail to see the lies IT’S YOUR LOSS
You will be crushed BY THE CROSS
Your life is crushed BY THE CROSS
