Our Lady Peace - Superman's Dead (from Live From Calgary & Edmo lyrics

[Words by J. Sherlock & S. Rowe, Music by J. Sherlock]

His eyes could hardly see the long road ahead

Blood and sweat dripped down His face as He was lead

His body was beaten, far beyond repair

They thought He was just a man

But He was the Son of God

This man was not guilty of any sin

He had done nothing wrong, He was innocent

He chose to take all the world's wrong

And take it down to the abyss

The journey continued to the place called the Skull

Step by step He staggered on, the sky was getting dull

On and on He kept up with this pain He must take

He went through this when will the world wake

Jesus Christ is the only Son of God

He did all this for you because He loved you

Many were weeping many more laughing

Many were mocking many were scorning

This man would do what no one understood

The sacrifice was made by God's own right hand

At last the arrival at Calvary's hill

They tore off his rove and naked He stood

They nailed Him to a cross they got their wish

But in three days they'd never guess

He rose from the grave!

He rose from the dead!

He rose from the grave!

He rose from the dead!
