lyrics

👤 Rock:

Why were You stripped and hung
In what should be my place?
Shouldering all my wrongs
Holding all my weight

The sun shone dark then
When I deserved
That penalty
How could You love me?

I know why You were hung up there
I think back to the motorcade
That crowd whose cheers filled the air
Had in mind the wrong kind of slave

Everyone
Everywhere
The rotten lot of us set free
Free from guilt
Free from despair
