Why do we  
Crucify ourselves?  
Every day  
I crucify myself  
Nothing I do is good enough for you.

This is a song for those Jesus hearted people

All my bags are packed/I’m ready to go  
I’m standin’ here outside your door  
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye  
But the dawn is breakin’/It’s early morn  
The taxi’s waitin/He’s blowin’ his horn  
Already I’m so lonesome  
I could die

So now I’m praying for the end of time  
To hurry up and arrive  
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you  
I don’t think that I can really survive  
I’ll never break my promise or forget my vow  
But God only knows what I can do right now  
I’m praying for the end of time  
It’s all that I can do  
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you!!!

Then one night in desperation  
A young man breaks away  
He buys a gun, steals a car,  
Tries to run, but he dont get far  
And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers round an angry young man  
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand  
In the ghetto
