Court is in session, a verdict is in

No appeal on the docket today, just my own sin

The walls cold and pale, the cage made of steel

Screams fill the room, alone I drop and kneel

Silence now the sound, my breath the only motion around

Demons cluttering around, my face showing no emotion

Shackled by my sentence, expecting no return

Here there is no penance, my skin begins to burn

So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

Which only fuels their selfish pride

(And I said, ohh) All held captive out from the Sun

A Sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all in one

I hear a thunder in the distance, see a vision of a cross

I feel the pain that was given on that sad day of loss

A lion roars in the darkness, only he holds the key

A light to free me from my burden and grant me life eternally

Should have been dead on a Sunday morning, banging my head

No time for mourning

Ain't got no time

Should have been dead on a Sunday morning, banging my head

No time for mourning

Ain't got no time

So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

Which only fuels their selfish pride

(And I said, ohh) All held captive out from the Sun

A Sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all in one

I cry out to God, seeking only His decision

Gabriel stand and confirms, I've created my own prison

I cry out to God, seeking only His decision

Gabriel stand and confirms, I've created my own prison

So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

Which only fuels their selfish pride

(And I said, ohh) All held captive out from the Sun

A Sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all in one

(And I said, ohh) So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

Which only fuels their selfish pride

(And I said, ohh) All held captive out from the Sun

A Sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all in one

Should have been dead on a Sunday morning, banging my head

No time for mourning

Ain't got no time
