cross to bear

hail victim

raise your voice

and curse this mortal chain

lay down your tired albatross

let heaven hear your strain

this unrelenting plague unbound

your agonizing toll

like god himself in parallel

delusion takes you hold

recoil

i see you writhe in distress

hell on earth

no one ever stood for pain like this

sing to me your plight unjust

define it for the rest of us

no river of your tears

no sympathy will find you here

not one of you bastards has a cross to bear

not one of you bastards has a cross to bear

you clench your fist unto the sky

to sound your troubled mind

unto the throne of sorrow's scribe

of sacrifice divine

recoil

i see you writhe in distress

hell on earth

no one ever stood for pain like this

sing to me your plight unjust

define it for the rest of us

no river of your tears

no sympathy will find you here

not one of you bastards has a cross to bear

not one of you bastards has a cross to bear

bite your tongue

bleed unsung

not one of you bastards has a cross to bear

not one of you bastards has a cross to bear
