Jesus Christ
Saviour Machine Lyrics

You are the essence of a life that needs to pray
You embody the core of a life that desires to communicate with a higher power.

You are the shadow of a man that bleeds away
You represent the fading silhouette of a man who is slowly losing life.

You are the hopes and fears that bind us to return
You are both the aspirations and anxieties that tether us to a past state or condition.

You are the shattered dream that frightens us to burn
You are the broken aspiration that terrifies us to explore uncharted territories.

Jesus Christ - Vengeance is mine
Jesus Christ – I am the one to decide how to avenge transgressions.

Jesus Christ - Leave them behind
Jesus Christ – Let go of the people or things that hinder your progression forward.

Jesus Christ - Please, leave them to die
Jesus Christ – Kindly permit them to pass on.

You are the reason for the wars that plague the land
You are the rationale behind the battles that ravage the earth.

You are the symbol for the cause in which they stand
You are the emblem for the objective they pursue.

You are the one who sits there watching as they die
You are the one who observes as they enter the eternal darkness.

You are the son of man that listens as they cry
You are the offspring of humanity who hears their mournful pleas.

Are you are the man who said to turn the other cheek?
Are you the one who proposed to endure further injury without retaliation?

Are you the one for this appears to be the weak?
Are you the person who seems feeble in this senseless suffering?

Are you to lift us from this silent found rebirth?
Are you the one to hoist us from this voiceless discovery?

Are you to take us from this stench that fills the earth?
Are you to rescue us from this pungent odor that pervades the world?

Without hate, without pain
In the absence of hate and pain

Without suffering insane
Without the absurd distress

Without death, without fire
Without dying, without burning

Without lies that feed the liar
Without untruthfulness that nourishes the deceiver

Without war, without games
Without armed conflict, without contests

Without fear to take the blame
Without alarm to assume responsibility

Without fame, without power
Without renown, without supremacy

Without drugs to heal the coward
Without medication for treating the timid

Without violence, without rape
Without brutality, without sexual assault

Without sickness, without plagues
Without illness, without widespread afflictions

Without judgment, without crime
Without verdicts, without offenses

Without hope, without time
Without optimism, without duration

Without two, without three
Without pairs of two, without sets of three

Without torture over belief
Without excruciation because of faith

Bring us love
Give us affection

Let us see
Allow us to perceive

Set us Free
Unshackle us from our chains
