lyrics

You don't need a cross to crucify,
You don't need word to tell a lie.
You don't need a cross to crucify,
You only have to let the truth out..

Let our voices put shame to thunder,
Put shame to.. thunder.

I'll add it to the list of things I'll never understand,
Out here on the fringe we do as the frontier demands.
We are not holy we are ghosts,
We linger on to haunt your homes because we can't stand to be alone.

The vice heaven is the vice of god,
The wealth of man is unconditional love.
The vice of heaven is the wrath of god,
'Cause fear of god is what we're so proud of.

Such sacrifice for makeshift love,
For makeshift.. Love.

I'll add it to the list of things I'll never understand,
Out here on the fringe we do as the frontier demands.
We are not holy we are kings,
We are cowards who renounced our thrones & abandoned our posts when war beckoned.

If from dust we came than to dust we shall return.

Don't need a cross to crucify.
Don't need words to tell a lie.
Don't need a cross to crucify.
You only have to let the truth out.

Let our voices put shame to thunder,
Put shame to.. thunder.

I'll add it to the list of things I'll never understand,
Out here on the fringe we do as the frontier demands.
We are not holy we are men.
One more coin to the wishing well,
One more coin to wish you hell.

If from dust we did come than to dust we return.
