Within Temptation - The cross lyrics

Nothing’s ever changed, you still 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, you’re denying me

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 life

Release me from this cross after all these years

Oh 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 ...

In my heart I still hope you will open the door

You can purify it all, answer my call

Why? Why?

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 ...

In my heart I still hope you will open the door

You can purify it all, answer my call
