| There’s a cure for all the dead,
|
| in all the dead, all the dead.
|
| It all started out as another failed attempt,
|
| they all died underfed
|
| For the sake of all that’s failing,
|
| I’d rather die on my knees
|
| than stand here with these same old
|
| tired and worn out feet of mine.
|
| Walking circles,
|
| because my chords remain unbalanced.
|
| This is not about me,
|
| this is not about us.
|
| Father, Father will they let you in, let you in?
|
| Please forgive me,
|
| I am one of them, one of them.
|
| Father, Father will they let you in, let you in?
|
| Please forgive me,
|
| I am one of them.
|
| So tear me open and reach right in,
|
| they don’t have to go the same way the came
|
| born to sin.
|
| In due time, they’ll all find
|
| that they can be forgiven.
|
| We all live in a world of convictions,
|
| an ugly world with ugly surroundings.
|
| You don’t recognize your own faces,
|
| 'cause there’s more than,
|
| more than just one side.
|
| We are all our own jury,
|
| some day we’ll be put on trial.
|
| This is not about me,
|
| this is not about us.
|
| Father, Father will they let you in, let you in?
|
| Please forgive me,
|
| I am one of them, one of them.
|
| Oh, let me in,
|
| oh, let me in.
|
| So tear me open and reach right in,
|
| they don’t have to go the same way the came
|
| born to sin.
|
| In due time, they’ll all find
|
| that they can be forgiven.
|
| You don’t forgive others for their sake,
|
| you forgive for your own sake.
|
| You don’t forgive only for your sake,
|
| for the sake of our falling, forgive yourself.
|
| Today I stand tallest from my knees,
|
| today I stand tallest from my knees,
|
| from my knees, from my knees. |
