this song is not meant to be offensive to any religious people, at all. it's just a metaphor, of sorts.
Lyrics
chorus: well if you wanna play jesus to me
stab your palms and your feet and i’ll believe
but i’ve never been your cross to bear
i’ve never been your cross i swear
and no one’s asking you to carry me
anywhere
if you wanna lay your hands on me
that has nothing to do with healing, i believe
you’re not raising me from anything
you’re just giving me reasons
chorus
we spoke in tongues and limbs and lips
you wore salvation on your fingertips
somehow you got under my skin
now i sleep without it…
chorus
and i’m no lamb of innocence
you’re just the son of your ignorance
so remember me as heavy wood
it’ll make things better
you’ll say that i was wounded and weak
and you were kissing the other cheek
oh, the sacrifices you made
yeah, that story is better
does it make you feel better?
i hope you feel better.
chorus
