Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
I keep wondering why
I'm still calling your name
Through my tears
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
I keep wondering why
I'm still calling your name
Through my tears
[Verse 8]
Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?
Cold is your silence, denying what is real
[Verse 9]
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
Ho ho ho ho hoo
[Verse 10]
Why? Why?
Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?
Cold is your silence, denying what is real
[Verse 11]
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
