• Cross The Bar - Confessor

You ran away with your conscience clear
There was a, a red flag waving in my ear saying
"Stay away, you've got something to fear"
Well why did I not choose to hear?
Well I am through with suffering
Gonna make better choices I don't need no wedding ring
I can sing, I can dance but I can't make this feeling cease
'Cause deep in my soul you left a permanent crease
And we all got our cross to bear
And our Star of David, our dread locked hair
And oh yeah baby, I still care
And if you need some help you know I'll always be there
Well it's been a, a strange year, you've been a very bad dog
As my fire went out, you'd put on another log
But it was worth never having any peace
And deep in my soul you left a permanent crease
And we all got our cross to bear
And our Star of David, our dread locked hair
And oh yeah baby, I still care
And if you need some help you know that I'll still be there
Some nights I thought I'd cry forever
I'd wish him away and then I'd turn into a beggar
But it was worth always scraping my knees
And deep in my soul you left a permanent crease
You' were there
You know I, I wear my heart like a wrinkle on my sleeve
And I've got this aching love that only you can relieve
But I'm, I'm not afraid to go down with a sinking friend
Gonna live at my dreams even if they kill me in the end
And we all got our cross to bear
And our Star of David, our dread locked hair

Twisting
Turning
Crashing
Burning
All this just to break me down
You don't know me
You don't see me
You don't own me cause I don't care
That I'm still here
Impatiently waiting for you to disappear
Is this my cross to bear?
Faceless
Faking
Pushing
Taking
All this just to bring me down
You don't know me
You don't see me
You don't own me cause I don't care
That I'm still here
Impatiently waiting for you to disappear
Is this my cross to bear?
You don't know me
You don't own me cause I'm aware
That I'm still here
Impatiently waiting for you to disappear
Is this my cross to bear
I'm still here
Reluctantly waiting for you to interfere

Everybody’s got their cross to bear
The cards were dealt, life ain’t fair
It’s what you do with what you got
You can cry a little you can give a lot
There’s always something to share
The miracle of love is all you need
To break the chains, to set you free
And lately, I see, the loneliness will fade
Falling, like a river from your eyes
See the tears roll down, another victim of the night
How far will people go?
How long until it shows
That we’ve been hiding from the light?
I want to know what love always meant to be
Cuz I’ve been blinded by the lie
I’ve come this far to find I don’t know what I need
Everyone’s got their cross to bear
Calling, in the middle of the night
When you need a friend, cuz something ain’t right
Your heart is bought and sold
And now it leaves you cold
I want to know what love always meant to be
Cuz I’ve been blinded by the lie
I’ve come this far to find I don’t know what I need
Everyone’s got their cross to bear
solo
The cards were dealt, and life’s unfair
Everybody’s got their cross to bear
Cross to bear
Cross to bear

Determination chained to the ground
Like a sledge full of stones
A simple question of self discipline
Will you walk or crawl
Spine breaking load
A burden of our own to shatter the backbone
We all have a cross to bear
refuse to share or separate, better buried than isolated
Dead weight is not to be divided
Resist and retaliate, defend and secure the sole fragment
Of what is sacred and pure, divine and consecrated
Define the strength of the will by endurance of the pain
Resolve and determine the reason and the cause

Too soon you have gone
Too late we have come
To accept what we lost
To reject what you won
Cross the bar, oh my friend
Cross the bar, to your end
The dreams they recur
The reality stays sound
The life that was lost
The death that was found
Cross the bar, oh my friend
Cross the bar, to your end
Handful of years
A pinch in time
You left us here
We sent you there
Everyday we remember
We hate what, what he took
Cross the bar, oh my friend
