Lyrics

Just like every cross you ever carried, every badge you ever wore
Every vow you ever taken, every oath you ever swore
Every kiss you ever stolen, every moment that you waste
Everything you ever loved, and all you come to hate
It's a great temptation in your hour of need
But there's no shortcut to salvation, searching for the kingdom key
Just like every vision you neglected, every dream you left to die
Every hope that you rejected, every truth that was a lie
Every road you ever traveled, everyone you turned away
Everything you ever loved, and all that you betray
It's a great temptation in your hour of need
But there's no shortcut to salvation, searching for the kingdom key
And the light before him was all that he could see
Like fingerprints on the hand of glory wrapped round a rosary
His love was like a chain that would not set you free, would not set you free
A lonely soul on a mission of mercy
Hey yeah, hmm-hmm
Hmm, hmm
Just like every cross you ever carried, every badge you ever wore
Every vow you ever taken, every oath you ever swore
Everything you ever loved, and all you come to hate
It's a great temptation in your hour of need
But there's no shortcut to salvation, searching for the kingdom key
It's a great temptation in your hour of need
But there's no shortcut to salvation, searching for the kingdom key
Hey, hey
