I am the crazy man

 Who lives inside your head

 But I think I'm breaking through the wall



 You are the innocent

 Convicted of the crime

 No one was ever there

 To catch you when you fall



 I see the diamonds

 But you only see the rock

 I need to run

 But you only crawl



 It's time to open up

 All the doors that you keep locked

 Nobody gives without a take

 Let's take it all



[Chorus:]

 You've been twisted into pieces

 By the hands of your emotions

 How much longer are you gonna pay

 For yesterday

 Sins of the father



 One more crucifixion

 One more cross to bear

 You're a hole in a photograph



 Go on - lose it in the city

 The city can feel no shame

 See the world with electric eye



 They call it mystery

 But any fool could see

 You thought he walked on the water



 And if the pain was gone

 And you were free to run away

 And get out



 Would you get out of there

 Or do you really care

 It's not safe or easy

 And maybe when you're gone

 You just won't belong at all



[Chorus:]

 You're the only witness

 To the murder of an angel

 How much longer are you gonna pay

 For yesterday

 Sins of the father



 It's just another crucifixion

 One more cross to bear

 Go on lose it in the city

 Take a look at the world

 You've got electric eyes
