Nailed |
I’ve been working for my whole life to get to the other side |
And try to achieve true righteousness |
All the scourges and whips I cracked |
The flesh I ripped off my back |
It only led me to emptiness |
Here I am, a broken man who’s done all that a man could do |
And found that it’s only filthy rags |
Monasteries, religious schools, indulgences, laws and rules |
It all added up to nothing and darkness and death |
Vanity, Heartache, and emptiness |
Efforts all fading away |
The flesh and defeat that it brings |
‘Till You guide me and show me things |
That my eyes have never seen before |
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast |
Never fight it anymore |
For the burden on my life has been released |
Nail it to the door |
Nailed these ninety-five things I’ve learned |
They’ll say that I must be burned |
For God has no place for heretics |
All the things that they try to sell |
It’s trickery straight from Hell |
To turn it into a den of thieves |
See these madmen peddling the wares of dead men’s souls |
Collecting on a debt already paid so long ago |
There’s fire in my spirit, and fire in their eyes |
For now they’ll want to burn me alive |
Yet freedom rings |
Unworthiness is all I bring |
The blood of Christ is all I claim |
This grace revealed everything |
That my eyes have never seen before |
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast |
Never fight it anymore |
For the burden on my life has been released |
Nail it to the door |
