Take it Easy

How many times would you crucify my Lord?
How many times would you crucify my Lord?
One for the city
One for the sword
One for the Cadillac
And one for the Ford
How many times would you crucify my Lord?
How many times would you trade my eye for eye?
How many times would you trade my eye for eye?
One for the piggy
And one for the sty
One for the cherry
And one for the pie
How many times would you trade my eye for eye?
Take it easy
And try not to die
Old Man Meddle's on the take
And the president lies
How many times would you crucify my Lord?
How many times would you crucify my Lord?
One for the pity
And one for the shame
One for the money
And one for the fame
How many times would you crucify my Lord?

There is blood in the city
There is blood
There is blood in the city
There is blood
There is power in the name
There is power in the love
There is blood in the city
There is blood
So brother rest your weight
On my shoulder
Dear brother rest your weight
On my shoulder
There is power in the name
There is power in the blood
Dear brother rest your weight
On my shoulder
There is blood in the city
There is blood
There is blood in the city
There is blood
There is power in the name
There is power in the love
There is blood in the city
There is blood

Your Thorn

The Devil is In me
Moving within me
Groovin' within me
Guiding my hands
Turning the pages
Directing stages
Burning, outrageous
Searching for land
Someday my eyes will turn to diamonds
Someday my hart will turn to glass
And when the rock of ages binds us
In his sacred glory
I'll be right there in your story burdening your path
You never betrayed me
Or tried to persuade me
Yet somehow you played me
And made me your slave
Your mouth is the gavel
Your throat filled with gravel
The roads that you travel
Have never been paves
Someday my eyes will turn to diamonds
Someday my heart will turn to glass
And when the rock of ages binds us
In his sacred glory
I'll be right there in your story burdening your path

We Were Blessed

We were soldiers
In the army of the lord
Soldiers
In the army of the lord
Take pity on me brother
Grace I can't afford
We were soldiers
In the army of the lord
We were blessed
By all the angels of the air
Blessed by all the angels of the air
We were fighting for forgiveness
We were young and dumb and scared
We were blessed
By all the angels of the air
Dry your eyes
Rest your feet
Christ who died
So we might sleep
Take pity on me brother
My brother of the sword
We were soldiers
In the army of the lord
Take pity on me brother
My brother of the sword
We were soldiers
In the army of the lord

Burning Star

Burning star
Shining brightly
Light my lover's way
The way back to my heart
Burning star
Light the daylight
Light the final corners resting in the dark
Everybody is a hero
Everyone's got five years left
Everybody is someone else's weirdo
Everybody is a priceless silhouette
Everybody is a weirdo
Everyone's got five years left
Everybody is someone else's hero
Everybody is a burning cigarette
Burning star
Burning star
Burning star
Burning star

At service
This morning
Without prior warning
The preacher preached
This insolent decree
I urge you
To vote with your conscience
And your conscience
Ought to tell you
You should vote for me
I can read the writing on the wall
Cast in glass and neon gas
And standing ten feet tall
Jesus disrupted
The sermon disgusted
With all the money changers he did see
He cried out
This kingdom is no for the taking
But giving to the peaceful and the meek
Blessed are the sick and broken spirits
Blessed is the holy message
Blessed are those who hear it
The riot police broke down the door
And clapped his ass in chains
They threw him away down a deep dark well
Where no one knows his name
This illegal immigrant
His insolence is evidence
An indicant of peer disloyalty
The president is reticent
To rule and set a precedent
But you must swear an oath of fealty
I can read the writing on the wall
Cast in glass and neon gas
And standing ten feet tall
