Well I'm afraid I'm not supposed to be like this
Like I was born in a land where no serpent hissed
And I have waited a long time for Your kissWell I have felt that they'd all take offense at me
And so a fence I have built to protect the seed
But all the bricks will secure its mortalityI have been seated in circles and stood in disgrace
At the noted intention to be in place
And I have seen that one Man save the human race
But it took His life and it took His faithI have risen from ashes and fed on flames
But even so I still fear I have played a game
And it seems no one else is as sick and depravedI have heard that I'm not supposed to be this way
And still the stones that are lifted fall down to stay
But I keep doubting and think one will strike my faceWell He's been promising me something more than pain
Where the cost is grace and my loss is gain
And I have chosen because there is no other way
I either wallow in shame
Or humble myself and be saved
And be saved
