The one who's watchin' over my shoulder get a life! I see your arms are nailed to the cross, but your eyes are so alive I never thought you're lying but now it's turned around So many hearts are dying you let them down Over and over again Can't reach you, can't meet you I give you everything I've got You hear me, don't leave me It's my message to you, God Can't see you, can't feel you I've lost just everything I've got Forget me, you've left me It's my message to you, God We're busy burnin' witches the way we learned from you We're good at killing creatures, so teach us something new, come on! One of your own creations is kind of hard to understand You, freak of nature - just tell me why did you create us man? Traces on the floor, I can't hear the door closing me Right inside my dream, it's a sign from him let me be Sunrise through the dust future is the past chasin' me Shadows on the wall, voices down the halls calling me Over and over again
