If you came by me would i crown you my king
Or brush you off as though i really didn't see

If you walked by my side would our souls then be unified
I swore your name would never be denied

But i took up this hammer

And laughed at all your slander
And pierced your hands
With the nails of blasphemy

How could i do this i don't know
Said something forced me to it so
Spit in your face and passed you by

But time and time again i'd live that life of sin
I knew it hurt you bad but i wasn't ready to give in

Maybe someday but not this day i said

I wanted to live my life i was willing to pay the price

But i took up this hammer

And laughed at all your slander
And pierced your hands
With the nails of blasphemy

How could i do this i don't know
Said something forced me to it so

Spit in your face and passed you by

I'd forgotten those words your name won't be denied
I'd forgotten those words your name won't be denied
I'd forgotten those words your name won't be denied
I'd forgotten those words your name won't be denied

But looking into my eyes i knew you felt this heart's cry
I needed you bad my life was oh so sad

But looking back at all this pain this guilt this strife
Would you take it all away if i were to give you back my life

But you said i've forgiven thee
And you said i've forgiven thee
But you said i've forgiven thee
And you said i've forgiven thee

He was hanging on a cross
With a crown of thorns in his head

He was hanging on a cross
With a crown of thorns in his head

He was hanging on a cross
With a crown of thorns in his head

He was hanging on a cross
With a crown of thorns in his head

But you said i've forgiven thee
And you said i've forgiven thee
But you said i've forgiven thee
And you said i've forgiven thee

Oh

Yeah

Oh

Yeah
