GWAR - Crushed by the Cross lyrics
[GWAR - Crushed by the Cross lyrics]
Entangled within your life, you fight
Cannot escape it's grasp
Commands you to repent or burn
Eternal for your past
Surrender them your body as they wish
To rule what grows inside
Hiding the simple truth there's nothing
For you when you die
Your rights denied by the cross
You fail to see the lies it's your loss
You will be crushed by the cross
Your life is crushed by the cross
Your flesh and blood pissed away and
Used as a bargaining chip
A poorly played hand in a
Game of political brinksmanship
The articles of their faith are
Fucking rife with hypocrisy
Your body striped with scars
Inflicted by theocracy
Your rights denied by the cross
You fail to see the lies it's your loss
You will be crushed by the cross
Your life is crushed by the cross
Our souls matter not
Though crucial to the plot
They coerce us to comply
Trade our lives for their lie
And so we'll be bred
Pumping out life until we are dead
We reach out for support
You cut us off at the fucking cord
(You will be branded)
Crushed by the cross
Crushed by the cross
Crushed by the cross
Crushed by the cross
Your rights denied by the cross
You fail to see the lies it's your loss
You will be crushed by the cross
Your life is crushed by the cross
Cannot escape it's grasp
Commands you to repent or burn
Eternal for your past
Surrender them your body as they wish
To rule what grows inside
Hiding the simple truth there's nothing
For you when you die
Your rights denied by the cross
You fail to see the lies it's your loss
You will be crushed by the cross
Your life is crushed by the cross
Your flesh and blood pissed away and
Used as a bargaining chip
A poorly played hand in a
Game of political brinksmanship
The articles of their faith are
Fucking rife with hypocrisy
Your body striped with scars
Inflicted by theocracy
Your rights denied by the cross
You fail to see the lies it's your loss
You will be crushed by the cross
Your life is crushed by the cross
Our souls matter not
Though crucial to the plot
They coerce us to comply
Trade our lives for their lie
And so we'll be bred
Pumping out life until we are dead
We reach out for support
You cut us off at the fucking cord
(You will be branded)
Crushed by the cross
Crushed by the cross
Crushed by the cross
Crushed by the cross
Your rights denied by the cross
You fail to see the lies it's your loss
You will be crushed by the cross
Your life is crushed by the cross
