Run the seas dry, until they're cold and marrowless
Let flame taste the rye; their filthy hands hold emptiness
The true word is nigh, some will claim it's powerless
They'll never see light through cylinders of faithlessness
Do you recall all your fears?
Do you retain those insecurities?
What could crack stone so thick
Or cause pure steel to corrode so quick?
I have constructed this kingdom
On a foundation of moral perfection
This, I claim with the utmost conviction
My passion and vigor will remain unwavered
Listen to what the righteous say
Where to work and where to play
These fences keep you at bay
Swear loyalty, how your head and pray
Reach out your empty palms
Feed yourself on empty psalms
War and starvation will not heal contagion
So, brothers and sisters, receive your salvation
Do you recall all your fears?
Do you retain those insecurities?
What could crack stone so thick
Or cause pure steel to corrode so quick?
I watched the crowd gather 'round
Upon the head, they placed a crown
Their cheers and praise began to mound
I heard the choir roar
'Make way! The savior has come!
This is the day; the crusade has begun! '
Listen to what the righteous say
Where to work and where to play
These fences keep you at bay
Swear loyalty, how your head and pray
Reach out your empty palms
Feed yourself on empty psalms
War and starvation will not heal contagion
So, brothers and sisters, I plea
Place your faith in me
First they took our arms, next, came our rights
To relinquish our free speech; our ability to fight
Make way, the savior has come
This is the day; the crusade has begun
You're safe here!
