i wrote every note that you sung
fought every battle you won
but i'm pulling out the nails of the cross you nailed me to
cause i'll no longer be your shadow
you didn't do this alone
and it's time you should know
i turned your bricks into a wall
built the throne where you sat tall
let you praise them like messiah
while i wore your crown of thorns
i turned your bricks into a wall
built the throne where you sat tall
let you praise them like messiah
while i wore your crown of thorns
you said the words but i wrote the poem
enjoyed the warmth but i built the home
but the grave that you dug wasn't deep enough for me
now you wanna cast me aside
well hey it's an eye for an eye
and i won't be crusified
i turned your bricks into a wall
built the throne where you sat tall
let you praise them like messiah
while i wore your crown of thorns
turned your bricks into a wall
built the throne where you sat tall
let you praise them like messiah
while i wore your crown of thorns
no more quiet woman behind her man
waiting to correct another one of his mistakes
an anonymous goddess behind her god
parting the waters of the world before it gets too late
well do you hear my gospel that you can't have
you can write it yourself
cause its not yours to take
this time
this time
this time
I turned your bricks into a wall
I built the throne where you sat tall
I let them praise you like messiah
While I wore your crown of thorns
I turned your bricks into a wall
I built the th
I let them praise you like messiah
While I wore your crown of thorns
I turned your bricks into a wall
I built the throne where you sat tall
I let them praise you like messiah
While I wore your crown of thorns
I turned your bricks into a wall
I built the throne where you sat tall
I let them praise you like messiah
While I wore your crown
I let them praise you like messiah
While I wore your crown
