no savior can save me

no savior can save me

no savior can save me
nails in the cross but
i'm still on this bed nails
i just can't stop fidgeting

the good book of biblical tales
of when tyranny was right
when prejudice took its lead
and when violence was the answer

so toss me to the demon;
the great beast and temptress
my lust of forbidden fruit
my curse? i am the demon's

no savior can save me
nails through his hands
i'm still nailed behind this door
and i'm hammering to go free

whisper sorry words with love
sorry that they love the fake
they beg and long for all,
all they cannot achieve on their own

and i am nothing,
in the great scheme of life, nothing
i am always your precious nothing
your special little nothing

no savior can save me now
nails in the cross and
i'm still on this bed of nails
and i just keep sliding down.
