Jesus Wept

First to cast the stone

I'd rather walk my miles alone

Last to take the blame

I'd rather take the hit than devastate the lame

Your eyes are blind

Your tongue is tied

Dumb to the gifts that we've received

Listen deaf ears

Strands of the march

Nothing has changed, all wasted years

Burning the home crushing the bone

Wasting the precious moments

Living to die draining the seas

Stealing the gems with hands unkept

Jesus wept

Air too thick to breathe

I watched the demons play naïve

Blood too thick to taste

I pull the leeches from my arm so not to waste

Gorged like the pig fat like the tick

Carrying bellies set to break

High on your throne ruling alone

Preaching commandments of your own

Leaving your home nursing the bone

Savoring precious moments

Dying to live filling the seas

Laying at the gold sheets where you slept

Jesus wept

Bleeding from holes

On my body beat and broken

I don't give a damn

How you accumulated tokens

Leaving your home nursing the bone

Savoring precious moments

Dying to live filling the seas

Laying at the gold sheets where you slept

Jesus wept
