Do I have to take this drink? Take a while, stop and think Do I really have to die to get this done? Couldn't you just wave your hand? Save my life, save this land Every woman, child, and man under the sun But if it be then let it be And fullfill my prophecy Unblemished but not unafraid I'm lyin' in this bed I've made All your debts have now been paid
[Chorus] Herod, have me Pilot, get your deed done Mary, love me Sometimes you're the only one Peter, deny me Judas, kiss me one more time Father, kill me Get this temple robe torn Make me a cold black sky
Beat me 'til I cannot see Flatter me in mockery I won't take the blame but I'll pay your tolls I don't need a scarlet robe I've bled enough to make my own It covers up my body like your sins cover your soul But if it be then let it be And fullfill my prophecy Unblemished but not unafraid I'm lyin' in this bed I've made All your debts have now been paid
[Chorus]
Somewhere in the heart of me A part of me has already died So come on get the rest How can you crucify the crucified?
