Via Crucis

(Sir Forgiven/Bard)


1. Times are changing so suddenly
Yesterday he was welcome as a king
Now he is facing a mission of cruel way
The hill is waiting
For another one
Crown of thorns on his head
Tears of pain, pain is dropping from his eyes
Forlorn, flagellated and prostrate
He's falling to rise
It has to be done

Bridge:
The Blessed one, the Cursed one, the Chosen one
The First one, the Last one, the Chosen one

2. Heavy is the wood of the cross
He's exhausted, he's falling under its heft
Someone will help him for a while
No one will turn death
Behind the gate
Screams of crowd, laments and cries
Near is the place, the hill called the Skull
Is this the glory we expected?
The mission so awful
The mission so great

Chorus:
To bring the Life through the Death
To bring the Love through the Hate
To bring the Joy through the Pain
To open the Doors
Through the way of the Cross

3. Spike so cold, fire in wounds
Silent pain, silent stream of innocent blood
No prayer for angelic help
For legions of God
For Father's grace
What's the price paid for our destiny?
The seal is broken, the Gate is open wide
"Into your hands I give my spirit"
He's finished his fight
Salvage of race

Chorus:
To bring the Life through the Death
To bring the Love through the Hate
To bring the Joy through the Pain
To open the Doors
Through the way of the Cross

The Blessed one...
