The Cross Lyrics

Within Temptation

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
If my heart is too hold/cold, can we open the door?
Can we ever find it all 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
