(Verse)
|
Somewhere along the line you must have missed the point,
|
This is not about you
|
You twist the words of The Gospel to glorify yourself,
|
But this is not about you!
|
|
Take the spotlight off the things that you've done
|
And realize he did what you never could
|
He carries the weight that you could never hold
|
And even if you had the chance you never would
|
|
(Bridge)
|
Hypocrite!
|
You think you're superior?
|
Hypocrite!
|
Do you really think belittling is the cure?
|
|
(Chorus)
|
You walk around with your head held high (head held high)
|
As if you're not the one that's living a lie (you're living a lie!)
|
What makes you think that you'll change their minds?
|
They'll never see the light
|
If all you preach is hate from a mountain top that you couldn't climb
|
|
(Verse)
|
Say what you want, but behind closed doors
|
You fight the same demons as everyone else.
|
Say what you will, but you look like a fool
|
To the rest of the world that knows that no one's perfect
|
|
(Bridge x2)
|
You live a lie!
|
Modern day Pharisees
|
Open up your eyes!
|
You never practice what you preach
|
Who gave you the right?
|
|
(Chorus)
|
You walk around with your head held high (head held high)
|
As if you're not the one that's living a lie (you're living a lie!)
|
What makes you think that you'll change their minds?
|
They'll never see the light
|
If all you preach is hate from a mountain top that you couldn't climb
|
|
The next time you feel the right to preach
|
About Commandments that you know you do not keep
|
Realize that it was grace that saved you
|
And do us all a favor, keep your self-righteous mouth shut!
|
Keep your mouth shut! Keep your self-righteous mouth shut!
|
Grace, grace, grace, grace!
|
We are all at the mercy of grace, grace, grace, grace!
|
You are no different than the rest of us!
|
|
(Chorus)
|
You walk around with your head held high (head held high)
|
As if you're not the one that's living a lie (you're living a lie!)
|
What makes you think that you'll change their minds?
|
They'll never see the light
|
If all you preach is hate from a mountain top that you couldn't climb
|
