Born Of Sin - In The Shadow Of The Cross

Lies, shame, sinner
Guilt, rage, sinner
Like a flower that struggles in the autumn
Its leaves reach towards the last summer sun
A small child in search of recognition
In the shadow of the cross there is none
Lies, shame, sinner
Guilt, rage, sinner
Every scar on my body is a lesson
You can teach my flesh with a stick
They can keep me locked up at night
But inside I rise towards the sky
These visions are frequently appearing
My father’s eyes filled with fear looking back at me
Burned bodies by the remains of our home
I see my mother as a whore on the cross
Every scar on my body is a lesson
You can teach my flesh with a stick
They can keep me locked up at night
But inside I rise towards the sky
Lies, shame, sinner
Guilt, rage, sinner
On that dawn the silence was broken
My whole life has led to this day
All the hate I’ve locked up inside me
I let out with a smile on my lips
First a swing to the head with my baseball bat
Then with bags I covered their faces
Drenched their bed in gas then I lit it
Stood there watching it burn to the ground
Every scar on my body is a lesson
You can teach my flesh with a stick
They can keep me locked up at night
But inside I rise towards the sky
Every scar on my body is a lesson
You can teach my flesh with a stick
They can keep me locked up at night
Like a flower that struggles in the autumn
Its leaves reach towards the last summer sun
A small child in search of recognition
In the shadow of the cross there is none
