Zero Hour - Stigmata
I am the priest so I will testify
here before us is not a lie
this man that bleeds from his hands and eyes
A messiah a pariah
he gives me life
Weave a spell
that none can tell
that all's not well
were they dwell
He's a beast I will falsify
to use this man until he dies
I will use his blood to mystify
to annoint you all
drenched in sighs
I count the heads
of those I've bled
of those I've lead
to where I tread
Where the blind the one-eyed is king
Lead us not into temptation
Some are blind with just good eyes
Deliver us from contemplation
Watch the old get religion quick
In the devil you may not believe
Lead us not into relevation
but he still believes in you
Deceive us with fascination
In vain to escape the tomb
In pain knowing of their doom
I'm reaching out
you're coming in
I'm reaching out
you're wearing thin
I'm reaching out
you're coming in
I'm reaching out
you're wearing thin
He saw the image of a man crucified in the midst of his wings
with his hands and his feet nailed to the cross
He's bleeding out
You're comeing in
I'm reaching out
You're wearing thin
He's bleeding out
You're drinking in
He's bleeding out
to drown your sins
His mind was flooded with a mixture of joy and sorrow
He was lost in a world of wonder
Each day I'm a god
Each hour I'm the rule
Every minute is mine
Every second for the fool
You quote from the book
but you don't understand
He is what he is
you worshippers of man
Superficial saviours of God
is what you crave till your grave
still you lead them on
May fate have its vengeance on you
when the last dollars spent
and your days are through
When the death knell rings
with the tolling of the bell
you'll realize just how far you fell
Red in claw sharp in tooth
man is man but the truth is the truth
they turn their backs now to the Son
Red in claw sharp in tooth
They bore witness but still need proof
they bow their heads as the night falls
