The Forgiver

The truth is this crucifix holds you
You don't hold it
Shown like a picture
This fixture sells scripture
To self-conscious sinners
Through subconscious whispers
So strip the beginners
Their right to see clearer

Should the death of a life be the wager
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Would the lesson divide the together
Fasting your heart to build the divide
Should the truth be disguised
Should you ever
Think twice
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Should you trust or deny the forgiver
Haunted by those with freedom of doubt

The truth is this recklessness
Loving on purpose shit
Adds to the conflict
This circus of lifelessness
Holding and pleading
Disastrously breeding
aligns with old theories
Your egos are steering

Should the death of a life be the wager
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Would the lesson divide the together
Fasting your heart to build the divide
Should the truth be disguised
Should you ever
Think twice
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Should you trust or deny the forgiver
Haunted by those with freedom of doubt

Growth defeating, thoughtless healing
Stealing from the hands you're feeding
Seeing, breathing, broken meaning
Sickening the chance we need
Defining reasons based on feelings
Passed down from a book you're reading
Surely we cannot believe
The past creates the now we're breathing
Growth defeating, thoughtless healing
Stealing from the hands you're feeding
Future bleeding, broken meaning
Sickening the chance we need

Should the death of a life be the wager
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Would the lesson divide the together
Fasting your heart to build the divide
Should the truth be disguised
Should you ever
Think twice
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Should you trust or deny the forgiver
Haunted by those with freedom of doubt

Should the death of a life be the wager
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Would the lesson divide the together
Fasting your heart to build the divide
Should the truth be disguised
Should you ever
Think twice
Ask not why
For they'll single you out
Should you trust or deny the forgiver
Haunted by those with freedom of doubt
