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.
Hypocrite, you think you're superior?
Hypocrite, do you really think belittling is the cure?
You walk around with your 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.
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.
You live a lie, modern day Pharisees.
Open up your eyes
You never practice what you preach.
You live a lie, modern day Pharisees.
Open up your eyes
You never practice what you preach.
Who gave you the right?
You walk around with your 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 (x4)
We are all at the mercy of
Grace (x4)
You are no different than the rest of us.
You walk around with your 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.
From a mountain top that you could never climb
