Lyrics Absolution

From the days of the tribes to the modern times
Never been how the other people lied
Betrayed with a judas kiss from the inside
Struck down, punched with a fist so you don't resist

We question why, condemned to die
Cut-ta-ho-tha
A simple lie, condemned to die
Cut-ta-ho-tha
Our words defy, condemned to die
Cut-ta-ho-tha

Does it matter when dreams are smashed in hate
Can it lead to a man's wicked twist of fate
Do you know of a tale of a broken man?
Why did his execution come as planned?

We question why, condemned to die
Cut-ta-ho-tha
A simple lie, condemned to die
Cut-ta-ho-tha
Our words defy, condemned to die
Cut-ta-ho-tha

Your lies and hypocrisy make me ill
Your religious democracy, i can't deal
I try to stand but you knock me down
Everywhere i land is the burning ground

These thorns and nails are killing me
You stand and cheer and watch me bleed
Though I claim that I've been freed
Now all this pain is what I need..these thorns

Try your conviction on mhy soul
You offer me solutions to make me whole
These thorns and nails are forever bound
Every time i wear them i wear them like a crown

These thorns and nails are killing me
You stand and cheer and watch me bleed
Though I claim that I've been freed
Now all this pain is what I need..these thorns

Do you know my name
Will you be the same
Will you play this game
Can you feel my pain


These thorns and nails are killing me
(everywhere is burning ground)
You stand and cheer and watch me bleed
(everywhere is burning ground)
Though I claim that I've been freed
(everywhere is burning ground)
Now all this pain is what I need..these
(everywhere is burning ground)thorns

So many evil images dancing on the screen
So many people crying at this horrific scene
To awake a sleep giant, awake him from the grave
Welcome self destruction, serving freedom's slave

I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want towake up, i don't want to wake up
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
It's the real world that makes me scream
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up, I don't want to wake up
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up to reality

Random acts of violence, shown for the world to see
So much screaming silence living in this misery
Prey upon the innocent, proclaiming deity
The dream is now a nightmare in the land of the free

I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up, i don't want to wake up
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
It's the real world that makes me scream
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up, I don't want to wake up
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up to reality

All I see, it's a dream
All I see, it's a dream
All I see, it's a dream
All I see, it's a dream

I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up, i don't want to wake up
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
It's the real world that makes me scream
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up, I don't want to wake up
I've landed in the middle of a nightmare
I don't want to wake up to reality
