Nothing But Pain
This one I saw on the wrong side of town
Full of nonsense for the desperate and weak
He's a man of the scum,
Kinda nice, kinda dumb
Oh yeah, make sure we slap both his cheeks
Hopefully some of his sheeple will see
When he hangs in shame, naked, then dead
Honor Rome, please the gods,
But look out for the frauds
Only you will get you daily bread
Chorus:
Oh, it's as plain as the sky and the rain
Oh, when you're weak you've got nothing but pain
When you're weak you've got nothing but pain
See that centurion, face full of doubt?
His privilege is weakening his soul
Mark my words, he's forgetting
The pow'r of bloodletting
Only fools give up any control
Now that street preacher is muttering again
He forgives us? Oh, yes, "king of the Jews"
It's delusion to think
Power means more than strength
He'll be gone soon; will his cult get a clue?
CHORUS
Bridge:
Now falls a darkness unnatural and strange
And a soldier of Rome shows no fear
But I have to admit
I've seen nothing like this
And the sky and rain crush sword and spear
CHORUS
