Sancteferia - The Statement

This is our daily bread
This is our cross to bear

This is our road to salvation, damnation
This is the awakening. Amen, amen...

How did we come to this?
Why do we hold on to this?

I have taken the flames
I've forsaken my thought just to make your way
Too much to live for, the cross on my shoulders is now
too much to take

I have taken the blames
I’ve forsaken my heart so that you could feel
I have torn myself apart so that you could be the lord
of hate,
saint of love, Rule us from above
