The Used - On The Cross

Track 7 From Artwork , This content belongs to The Used and their respective labels not me. Lyrics
We were taught to kneel and bow our heads.
I tried simply standing up instead.
Heard rumors of transparent legs
And walks for days and days.

These days we reach for so much more
We reached the point where we can't go home.
Alone we wait here underground
Amidst the others waiting

So pray, then, if it makes you feel safe.
But all I can is we go our own way.
We go our own way.
So save us.

Would guess you were the chosen one.
The right place, you were the firstborn son.
Once questioned stable state of mind
To spend some time in the gutter.

A full collapse and caving in
Just wait for faith to kick in
I lost track of time as i stood in line
Amidst the other believers.

So pray then, if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go are own way

So pray then, if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go are own way
We go are own way
So save us

Over and over and I still can not believe
We can't save ourselves
Give me a chance up on the cross and watch me bleed.
Now ask for help

Having faith in something you can't see
Takes something else
Over and over and i still can not believe
We can save ourselves

So pray that if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go are own way

So pray then, if it makes you feel safe
All I can say is we go are own way
Send your prayers our way
To save us

I'm a follower of Christ and a believer of the message of salvation...but I love how Bert has spoken honestly to the hypocrisy and unwavering proof that the Christian world is doing a poor job to witness and live what we speak. I don't think this song is in any way part of an agenda, it's just an example that "we" have failed to make a good reputation for ourselves.

@kevonlyle what makes christians look bad is the overly religious people who force religion on people. i'm christian and i don't consider myself religious i don't have a religion with god i have a relationship

Btw The Used is my Favorite band

[jewels5073]

If this song is not reaching out to you there's something wrong. Bert is saying what other people are afraid to say for the sake of ridicule. People now or days pray just to feel safe and that's not how it works you have to commit and dedicate yourself to God. Little do the people that just wants to feel safe know your prayers only go as high as your ceiling. You're better off going it alone.

So much anger on here from everyone, Why can't we just stop with our own opinions for once and enjoy the music? I love Bert and The Used regaurdless of religious views.

@chrissy1234567891000 haha they have been around since before you even knew what music was. I am telling you kid they have a ton of respect and a lot of devoted fans, me being one of them. Look into some of their older music if you like this song, a great song of theirs that I love is "Poetic Tragedy" that's from I think like 2001-03 somewhere around those years. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

The chorus always sends chills down my spine :)
