- Lyrics - Devotion
play
the mp3's - devotion.mp3 remix.mp3
it was i who touched the hands
of god
and gave you the strength of a million days
i sell to you with crossed out eyes
a value lie of devotion
i carried your faith with broken arms
to the city walls of gibraltar
and tore down the gates of babylon
in the silence you saw the monster
that claimed to be an angel above
with passion you gazed on me
so faithfully believed
whispering voices you tested
me
twisting my words and my thoughts
you threaten me with a mortal act
manipulated by your sin
you sold to me a fairy tale
one of love and devotion
standing on the edge
i fell from grace
cut so deep
i am the phoenix who will rise again
to test your temptation and your callused lives
you tested our breaking backs
with a lack of faith
and in the darkness you turned to me
with outstretched arms and idle hands
i sell to you with crossed out eyes
a value lie of devotion
so faithfully believed
