Pilgrims Lyrics

Take me down from the cross

Dress me in Hugo Boss

Give me love and a cigarette

There are dreams to fulfill

So many holes to drill

Gentleman step up and place your bet


When you told me I was the savior

Well, I was a different man

It's dog eat dog, the lepers have claws

And a man's got to do what he can

To survive

To stay alive

It's an eye for an eye

Until the whole damn world goes blind

Everybody is naked and shameless

You know the only one

Deserving of God's love

Are the beautiful, the rich, and the famous

I took you to the Promised Land

But promises are made to be broken

You were crying out for freedom

It's in the air that you're choking

Choking on…as I sing my song

We are killers

We are victims

We are soldiers at the crucifixion

Turning facts into fiction

We are Pilgrims on this expedition

And we're lost

Deals get made

We all get paid

I'll be honest,

There's no heart in it

Keeping your head high

Swallowing your pride

Tell ya darling,

That's the art of it

When you told me I was the savior

Well, I was a different man

It's dog eat dog, the lepers have claws

And a man's got to do what he can

To survive

To stay alive

We are killers

We are victims

We are soldiers at the crucifixion

Turning facts into fiction

We are Pilgrims on this expedition

And we're lost

We are liars

We are lovers

We all drink the blood of others

Turning facts into fiction

We are pilgrims on this expedition

And we're lost

We are lost

We are lost
