Sign of the Cross (Live in Mexico City, Palacio de los Deportes, Mexico, September 2019)
11 saintly shrouded men
Silhouettes stand against the sky
One in front with a cross held high
Come to wash my sins away
Standing alone in the wind and rain
Feeling the fear that is growing
Sensing the change in the tide again
Caught by the storm that is brewing
Feel the anxiety hold by the fear
Some of the doubt in the things you believe
Now that your faith will be put to the test
Nothing to do but await what is coming
Why is then God still protecting me
Even when I don't deserve it?
Though I am blessed with an inner strength
Some they would call it a penance
Why do I have to face this alone?
Asking the question time and again
Praying to God won't keep me alive
Inside my head feel the fear is in the rise
They'll be saving their prayers when the moment comes
Penance to pay when it's judgement day
And the guilty'll bleed when the moment comes
They'll be coming to claim, take your soul away
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
A fire in the sky
The sign of the cross
They'll be coming to bring the eternal flame
They'll be bringing us all immortality
Holding communion to the world be blessed
My creator, my God, lay my soul to rest
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
A fire in the sky
The sign of the cross
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
A fire in the sky
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
The sign of the cross
Lost the love of heaven above
Choose the lust of the earth below
11 saintly shrouded men
Come to wash my sins away
Silhouettes stand against the sky
One in front with a cross held high
Come to wash my sins away
Standing alone in the wind and rain
Feeling the fear that is growing
Sensing the change in the tide again
Caught by the storm that is brewing
Feel the anxiety hold by the fear
Some of the doubt in the things you believe
Now that your faith will be put to the test
Nothing to do but await what is coming
Why is then God still protecting me
Even when I don't deserve it?
Though I am blessed with an inner strength
Some they would call it a penance
Why do I have to face this alone?
Asking the question time and again
Praying to God won't keep me alive
Inside my head feel the fear is in the rise
They'll be saving their prayers when the moment comes
Penance to pay when it's judgement day
And the guilty'll bleed when the moment comes
They'll be coming to claim, take your soul away
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
A fire in the sky
The sign of the cross
They'll be coming to bring the eternal flame
They'll be bringing us all immortality
Holding communion to the world be blessed
My creator, my God, lay my soul to rest
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
A fire in the sky
The sign of the cross
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
A fire in the sky
The sign of the cross
The name of the rose
The sign of the cross
Lost the love of heaven above
Choose the lust of the earth below
11 saintly shrouded men
Come to wash my sins away
