Nail Me

Never been a stranger to Nights in the country jail Been there a time or two Ain't proud of it myself Might smoke a little weed I've heard the grass is green There on the other side Ain't always what it seems But I won't hide behind a thousand lies At least I know who I am Nail me to the cross outside Of your ivory tower where you sit so high On that horse you rode 'Cause I stand here alone So hit me with the stones you cast Your shadow looks back while you stare through glass You don't think I know I'm a jester before your throne How's it feel up there? Holy up and down To live without a care Perfect in and out I won't hide behind a thousand lies At least I know who I am Nail me to the cross outside Of your ivory tower where you sit so high On that horse you rode 'Cause I stand here alone So hit me with the stones you cast Your shadow looks back while you stare through glass You don't think I know I'm a jester before your throne Ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Faith, through faith) It is your faith that has saved you There's nothing that you have done yourselves It is a beautiful gift of God Not because of you, so that no man can boast of his goodness It's because of the deadly crisis
