lyrics

The lessons have been taught but truth remains unknown
Within this garden now I find myself alone
My mind recoiling from the way that lies ahead
A fearful sacrifice when tears and blood are shed
Spare me this pain
The darkest hours of night are just before the dawn
For them to know the truth they first will have to mourn
Spare me this pain (x2)
The traitor comes to greet me, betrayal with a kiss
He will know guilt before the end
The guardsmen come to take me, in armoured ranks they come
To drag me to the councilmen
Messiah, holy man
Judea, holy land
Yeshua will be condemned
This is my cross to bear
No other way, this is my cross to bear
The sword of Simon Peter cuts through both flesh and steel
Before the day breaks he’ll deny me (deny me)
The elders are divided, corruption wins the hour
Before the night they’ll crucify me (crucify me)
Messiah, holy man
Judea, holy land
Yeshua will be condemned
This is my cross to bear
No other way, this is my cross to bear (x3)
What would you all have me do?
What (crucify!) would you (crucify!) all have (crucify!) me do? (crucify!)
What (crucify!) would you (crucify!) all have (crucify!) me do? (crucify!)
Purify your sins with scourging
Liar king, now wear your crown
Through the streets you drag your burden
On, to The Place Of The Skull
In The Place Of The Skull (x2)

It is finished, they know not what they do
It is accomplished, they know not what they do
Here, in The Place Of The Skull, he was crucified for blasphemy and treason
alongside common thieves and murderers
The sky itself turned black and the temple curtains tore in two
There, from The Place Of The Skull, they took the broken and mutilated bodies down
for burial
And, on the third day of rest, the stone rolls back…
