Golgotha

I believe that justice is the same thing as the law

So I conform my opinion to whatever I've been told.

I'll admit that I just shrug, and I don't dwell on everyone

When I hear some unfortunate hound got thrown in with the wolves.

'Cause deep down I know that the innocent always go free

That there's someone who's watching the watchers--it doesn't have to be me.

It's easy to trust that things are going as they should

As long as it's no one I know getting nailed onto the wood.

It's no surprise he was arrested--he should have held his peace

That's what you get for speaking out in troubled times like these

He said, "We've gone astray from where we were when this began."

I'm sure it'll all be fine if we just support the plan.

'Cause deep down I know that the innocent always go free

That there's someone who's watching the watchers--it doesn't have to be me.

It's easy to trust that things are going as they should

As long as it's no one I know getting nailed onto the wood.

(Who dies...?...pierce the flesh...?)
