Carry The Burden

Verse 1:
The last supper approaches,
Extravagant cuisine before
the execution,
No one in here cares if I live or die,
But I suffer for their sins regardless,

Chorus (1):
Even Jesus didn’t quite fit in,
In a world that tends to sin,
Why must I always carry the burden?

Even Jesus didn’t understand,
Why curiosity gnaws at man,
Why do I only do the best I can?

Verse 2:
The angry mob approaches,
Yelling obscenities before
The sacrifice,
Everyone wants to watch me fail,
But all I failed to do was save them from themselves,

Chorus (2):

Even Jesus didn’t quite fit in,
In a world that tends to sin,
Why must I always carry the burden?

Even Jesus didn’t understand,
The evil that garners within man,
Why do I only do the best i can?

Bridge:
Why does curiosity gnaw at man,
The evil that garners within man,
It only takes a second to screw up carelessly,
But it takes a thousand years to repent carefully,

Chorus (1&2)

Outro:
Willingly,
Calmly,
Will I offer my life for you,
Hands raised in the air,
Burning flesh everywhere,
I’d do it all just to save you from yourself
