You are the essence of a life that needs to pray,
You are the shadow of a man that bleeds away,
You are the hopes and fears that bind us to return,
You are the shattered dream that frightens us to burn.
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - leave them behind,
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - please, leave them to die.
You are the reason for the wars that plague the land,
You are the symbol for the cause in which they stand,
You are the one who sits there watching as they die,
You are the son of man that listens as they cry.
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - leave them behind,
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - please, leave them to die.
Are you are the man who said to turn the other cheek?
Are you the one? - for this appears to be the weak,
Are you to lift us from this silent found rebirth?
Are you to take us from this stench that fills the earth?
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - leave them behind,
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - leave them to die.
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - leave them behind,
Jesus Christ - vengeance is mine,
Jesus Christ - please, leave them to die.
Bring them to life,
Without hate, without pain, without suffering insane,
Without death, without fire, without lies that feed the liar,
Without war, without games, without fear to take the blame,
Without fame, without power, without drugs to heal the coward,
Without violence, without rape, without sickness, without plagues,
Without judgement, without crime, without hope, and without time,
Without two, without three, without torture over belief,
Bring us love,
Let us see,
Set us free.
