Beloved Songtext

Beloved Songtext
All is quiet
And I can′t sleep,
The tree's aglow
In front of me
Red Lights depict the Blood
That once was shed
To end all Bloodshed.
No Offerings, no Shame, no Guilt,
No Scapegoats killed for Our sins.
I once thought God appeased by Blood
Forgave and made us sacred,
But now I know it′s always Love
It's never been punishment
It's never been
But We could not accept it
It′s never been
All is plain
In Communion with the Saints
Those martyred ghosts
Like the One They′ve followed
But Death could never hold Him down
'cause Death is Human Nature.
We so "short-sighted", We see everything
As punitive here
So We project Our laws and say there
Must be Substitution
Now I can see the Passion was an act
Of killing the myth
Forgiving the injustice
We′re just His kids
Proving that She Loves Us
So We can Live
No more blood to be shed
No more blame to be spread
Believe It
Believe Your Beloved
Believe It
Believe Your Beloved
And Live
And I can′t sleep,
The tree's aglow
In front of me
Red Lights depict the Blood
That once was shed
To end all Bloodshed.
No Offerings, no Shame, no Guilt,
No Scapegoats killed for Our sins.
I once thought God appeased by Blood
Forgave and made us sacred,
But now I know it′s always Love
It's never been punishment
It's never been
But We could not accept it
It′s never been
All is plain
In Communion with the Saints
Those martyred ghosts
Like the One They′ve followed
But Death could never hold Him down
'cause Death is Human Nature.
We so "short-sighted", We see everything
As punitive here
So We project Our laws and say there
Must be Substitution
Now I can see the Passion was an act
Of killing the myth
Forgiving the injustice
We′re just His kids
Proving that She Loves Us
So We can Live
No more blood to be shed
No more blame to be spread
Believe It
Believe Your Beloved
Believe It
Believe Your Beloved
And Live
