WE BLACK HEARTS BEAR THE CROSS

(Jonny Craig Verse 1) Your father hated me While your mother disapproved They set, set all the rules That you never listened to Yeah you never listened to I was your escape, your getaway So send me off to hell, I prefer the warm weather Let my passion speaks for itself, for itself No I wouldn’t have it any other way (Chorus) Jesus Christ we were such great sinners And i won’t look back On the empty, empty California, empty California winters We sure know how to live We sure know how to live We sure know how to live We sure know how to live Cause I feel so alive Yes I feel so alive Where others would feel so dead (whoa) (Jonny Verse 2) So you can nail me up, you can crucify me Good or bad, at least I pushed the limits At least you can say I lived it At least you can say I lived it I was never the one to hold my breath Never the one to bite my tongue And after all of the critics I’ll be the bad guy I’ll take the burden for the person you’ve become (Chrous) And Jesus Christ we were such great sinners And i won’t look back On the empty, empty California, empty California winters We sure know how to live We sure know how to live We sure know how to live We sure know how to live Cause I feel so alive Yes I feel so alive Where others would feel so dead (Kyle Lucas Verse) We sure know how to live Sure know how to sin Probably why I drink like a fish Tryin to drown all my problems but they learn to swim Still I rise above it All this hate but somehow I love it Shit, you could probably tell by the sound of it Looking back now man I’m pretty proud of it There’s a hole in my chest where my heart once was Now it’s vacant I need a replacement I’m surrounded by girls who are just as heartless But I’m numb to ‘em all see I’ve grown complacent Really I just need a vacation Workin all these hours I’m sick of the graveshift Overnight drives on tour through the matrix It’s hard to stay real I’m surrounded by fake shit (Chrous) And Jesus Christ we were such great sinners And i won’t look back On the empty, empty California, empty California winters We sure know how to live We sure know how to live We sure know how to live We sure know how to live Cause I feel so alive Yes I feel so alive Where others would feel so dead So dead So dead So dead So dead SOOOOOOOOO (Bridge/Outro) I’ll take the burden, take the burden, take the burden I’ll bear the cross, bear the cross, bear the cross I’ll take the burden, take the burden, take the burden I’ll bear the cross, bear the cross, bear the cross I’ll take the burden, take the burden, take the burden I’ll bear the cross, bear the cross, bear the cross I’ll take the burden, take the burden, take the burden
