View all the colours in your hand
A distinctive red shines trough them all
These rusty nails bear signs of blood
A sinful life will clear it all
You will bear my sin as if you’re proud
You’ll swear my name and beg me please
A moment to live in, a sequence to heal
You’ll find no redemption here
Your heart
Your soul
Your everything
You will give it to me
This sacrament is for real
It will end some day you shall be free
This torturing nightmare will end with me
I’ll place my coat around your shoulder
I’ll bring comfort you shall be released
You will bear my sin as if you’re proud
You’ll swear my name and beg me please
A moment to live in, a sequence to heal
You’ll find no redemption here
Your heart
Your soul
Your everything
You will give it to me
This sacrament is for real
