Shadow of the Cross Songtext
Lines carved into stone
A regal voice speaks clear
Power through fear
Preach and obey thy code
We hold a book on high
Hypocritical lies
We can fly without their wings
I′ve never had time for imaginary things
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Kneel, sword or the cross
Oppress those who deny
Your belief is right
Time manipulates and hides
The truth we've slowly lost
And at what cost
We can fly without their wings
I′ve never had time for imaginary things
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Streets of gold they're tarnished and bare
Violated and desecrated
Widespread warfare, savage nightmare
Humanity endangered, biblical failure
Rise and be reborn
Embrace eternal life
But at what price
Crimes in the name of god
So many millions died
Self sacrifice
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Streets of gold they're tarnished and bare
Violated and desecrated
A regal voice speaks clear
Power through fear
Preach and obey thy code
We hold a book on high
Hypocritical lies
We can fly without their wings
I′ve never had time for imaginary things
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Kneel, sword or the cross
Oppress those who deny
Your belief is right
Time manipulates and hides
The truth we've slowly lost
And at what cost
We can fly without their wings
I′ve never had time for imaginary things
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Streets of gold they're tarnished and bare
Violated and desecrated
Widespread warfare, savage nightmare
Humanity endangered, biblical failure
Rise and be reborn
Embrace eternal life
But at what price
Crimes in the name of god
So many millions died
Self sacrifice
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Fallen, bleeding, broken in the shadow of the cross
Fallen, bleeding, a system now broken
Streets of gold they're tarnished and bare
Violated and desecrated
