"The Last Redemption" lyrics - W.A.S.P.
[Jesse to the world:]
Take me, shame me
I made you to lay my name on your tongues
Hate me, Slay me
It's danger to hang my face on your walls
Take me, Change me
I'm nothing but crowns of thorns on your hearts
Oh, oh can you change me, save me
Will you love me
Nailed to your Neon Cross
If I die for you will my life have counted
Give me the truth, would it mean anything
If I die for you will I die for thousands
Oh, give me the truth
Will you ever remember me
If I die for you
[Congregation:] We're dying for you
[Jesse:] I lied to thousands
[Congregation:] Our God is you
[Jesse:] I am deceit
[Congregation:] Falling for you
[Jesse:] I was the God with
Disciples at my feet
[Congregation:] Give us the truth
[Jesse:] I'm Lord to no man
[Congregation:] Telling us true
[Jesse:] It's all lies you see
[Congregation:] Give us the truth
[Jesse:] Messiah to thousands
With love's blood at my feet
[Congregation:] Just give us the truth
[Jesse:] Yeah I lied to thousands
[Congregation:] Telling us true
[Jesse:] I sowed what you'll reap
[Congregation:] Give us the truth
[Jesse:] Messiah of Nothing
Disciples at my feet
[Jesse to the world:]
I am no God of all you lost religions
Prophet for love
You could never see
You all believed
Oh, I was the chosen one
I'll please the crowds and die out loud
Take my name in vain
Cast it on the long forgotten wind
I Messiah nothing
Oh why, why'd you made me God
I wanna die
No don't come to me
No don't believe in you God of Love
Oh, won't ya see
I can't deceive no more
No don't believe
I'm no redeeming God of love
Your God you see's
All make believe Neon
When I'm gone
Will you all still need your
Dangerous Gods
You'll never see
We all deceive
Oh, until we're here and gone
Oh mother please, what'd you do to me
Anoint my head with oils
Dark descent to madness be my friend
I Messiah nothing
Oh why, why'd you made me God
I wanna die
[Disciples to Jesse:]
Your fucked for life
Die for us oh Messiah please
[Disciples to Jesse:]
Your fucked for life
Die so we'll all believe
[Jesse to the world:]
I, Messiah nothing
Oh I, Oh i'm a throw away for life
I, Messiah nothing
Oh why would you remember anymore
If i die
[Jesse to the world:]
Oh, all I need was someone
To love me
Oh, all I needed was one
There're no one who cares
Oh, all I need was someone
To love me
Oh, all I needed was one
There're no one who cares
[Jesse to God:] Oh, Tell me my Lord
Why am I here?
Surely not to live in pain and sorrow
Are we to live in pain and fear?
Oh, Tell me my Lord
Why am I here?
Are we to hide inside and fear forever
A never ending road of tears
Oh, Tell me my Lord
Why am I here?
[Judah:] Are you still Neon God
[Jesse:] I won't go away
[Judah:] Still an icon
Thrilling Neon
[Jesse:] It won't go away
[Judah:] Dying for their love
[Judah:] Still the God of
[Jesse:] It won't go away
[Judah:] Thrilling Neon
Killing their God
[Jesse:] Go away
[Judah:] Spilling all your blood
[Judah:] Can you save your Neon
[Jesse:] If I fade away
[Judah:] Show them their wrong
[Jesse:] And die today
[Judah:] A crucified son
A martyr for their love
[Judah:] You were never my God
[Jesse:] Yours to blame
[Judah:] Can you walk on water
[Jesse:] Yours to slay
[Judah:] Come off your cross
[Judah and Jesse to each other:]
And resurrect
Your God
[Jesse to the world:]
No don't come to me
No don't believe in your God of Love
No don't come to me
I can't deceive no more
No don't believe
I'm no redeeming God of love
Your God you see's
All make believe Neon
No, don't come to me
No, don't believe
And don't die for me
You're all deceived for love
