The Cross — Within Temtation

Nothing's ever changed, just a turn away You've washed your hands You've made that all too clear You just keep on living this lie

You refuse to see I'm in agony The cross I bear But you don't seem to care Even Judas knew he had lied

I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears

Why have you waited to embrace me, my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name, my dear

I'm sorry if you can't stand the naked truth All you see is how you want it to be So you keep on living your lie

Release me from this cross after all these years Call my name and help me with this weight Even though it comes far too late

I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears

Why have you waited to embrace me, my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name

And I wonder, oh, I wonder You were hardest to hold You would run from the dark You can purify them and save my heart

Why have you waited to embrace me, my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name

And I wonder, oh, I wonder You were hardest to hold You would run from the dark You can purify them and save my heart

Why have you waited to embrace me, my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name, my dear
