Once Upon The Cross

Once upon the cross

Father!!! Why Have You Forsaken ME???!!!

Nazarene in the valley of persuasion
To receive last temptations from Lord Satan
"Take a bite" said the serpent, "eat of it"
Without no choice to do so, you cannot resist

Impaled crucifixion
Compassion forgot
Eternal damnation
Once upon the cross

Blasphemy laughs at thee
Jesus you've been deceived
Struggling on the cross
Gagging to breathe
Despise your god, question why
You were retrieved by the angel of light
Once upon the cross

Kill him, kill him, kill him.... Satan

Nazarene screaming on his crucifixion
Prophecy in its final contradiction
When you die is when the lie will be believed
Upon the cross, before the world to see

Impaled crucifixion
Compassion forgot
Eternal damnation
Once upon the cross

Once upon the cross
