lyrics

and i've been running away from the crippled and meek because they're ugly to me, and i can't help but think i could sell this new song to all of my rich white friends.
and they will think i am more righteous than them because suburban christian culture teaches that confessions of sins is righteousness. tell me what atrocities did Jesus confess to become out righteous king?

hosanna, i am the stain upon your shirt, the one who made you hurt, the one who left your sheep for the faith that they sold to me on tv, a faith that is just for me.

and i've been running away from the crippled and meek because they're better than me, and i know i don't seek the healing of God the way that i ought to do. and i will sink deeper down in my sin because the only place i'm comfortable are places that i know i've already been. tell me who has ever been healed like this, refusing to leave their mat.

hosanna, i am the stain upon your shirt, the one who made you hurt, the one who left your sheep for the faith that they sold to me on tv, a faith that is just for me.
you died, it seems, just for me. you died just so i could be whatever i want to be. you died just to set me free from responsibility. the light for the world to see, i'm hording it all for me. i'm keeping you all to me. the light for the world to see.
