Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I only want to say
If there is a way
Take this cup away from me
For I don't want to taste its poison
And feel it burn me, I've changed
I'm not as sure as when we started
[Verse 2]
Then I was inspired
Now I'm sad and tired
Listen, surely I've exceeded expectations
I've tried for three years and it seems like thirty
Could you ask as much from any other man?
[Verse 3]
But if I die
See the saga through and do the thing you ask of me
Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their tree
[Verse 4]
I want to know, I want to know my God
I want to know, I want to know my God
I want to see, I want to see my God
I wanna see, I wanna see my God
[Verse 5]
Why I should die?
Would I be more noticed than I ever was before?
Yeah, would the thing I've said and done matter any more?
[Verse 6]
I have to know, I have to know my Lord
I have to know, I have to know my Lord
I have to see, I have to see my Lord
I have to see, I have to see my Lord
[Verse 7]
If I die, what would be my reward?
If I die, what would be my reward?
I have to know
I have to know my Lord
[Verse 8]
Why should I die?
Why I should die?
[Verse 9]
Can you show me now that I would not be killed in vain?
Yeah, show me just a little of your omnipresent brain
Show me there's a reason for your wanting me to die
You're far too keen on where and how but not so hot on why
[Verse 10]
Alright, I'll die
Just watch me die
See how I die
Just watch me die
[Verse 11]
Just watch
Just watch
[Verse 12]
The I was inspired
Now I'm sad and tired
After all I've tried for three years
And it seems like ninety
[Verse 13]
So why then am I scared to finish
What I started, what you started?
I didn't start it
[Verse 14]
God, thy will is hard
But you hold every card
I will drink your cup of poison
Nail me to your cross and break me
[Verse 15]
Bleed me, beat me, kill me
Take me now before I change
My mind
