| They tell you what to believe in
|
| But you don’t need the mask they wear
|
| In a world so deceiving
|
| Stealing dreams to kill your flair
|
| I see lies inside your brain
|
| Telling you that you’re gone insane
|
| When all you did was step out of the rain
|
| The sun was better than the pain
|
| Capitalistic shadow over paradise
|
| Political drama breeding sacrifice
|
| They’re all in it for the business
|
| But me I’m in it for the heart
|
| I’ll never sell my soul to greed
|
| I’ll take the nails and bleed
|
| Hammered to the cross, yeah
|
| Led up to the cross
|
| My mind is chaos but I got the beat
|
| I am the rhythm and melody
|
| What’s my own picture and what’s the flame?
|
| But now i’m tired to play this game
|
| My wings of darkness still keep trying to fly free
|
| Someone take the pressure down this storm inside of me
|
| I saw you there in the paper standing next to a faker
|
| And it blew my mind
|
| You and me never meant to be
|
| But how could you be so blind
|
| You were in it for the business
|
| When you left and broke my heart
|
| You were just a deceiver
|
| And I was the bleeder of love
|
| Hammered to the cross
|
| Crying on the cross
|
| Like a candle in the frozen night
|
| I’m the flame of the lonely light
|
| Burning fast in these times of haze
|
| Crucified in this ancient place
|
| Slowly dying from the things I learned to love
|
| We’re all swallowed by the business
|
| Under the eye that steals their heart
|
| Even now we give a smile and pretend for a while
|
| All in it for the business
|
| Everybody’s in the business
|
| I’ll never let it drown my soul
|
| And kill my rock n' roll
|
| They were in it for the business
|
| When they stabbed him in the side
|
| Sent down to the earth over lies
|
| To take our sins and die
|
| Hammered to the cross, yeah
|
| Bleeding for the lost
|
| God help all of us |
