Owen Pye – Pharisee of the State lyrics

I've been walkin'
all this way
all by myself
with all this weight
and you told me to lay it at your feet

I just don't trust you all that much
Even since you lowered the stakes
I'm the pharisee of the state

[Musical interlude]

Man at the side of the road
out of gas and nowhere to go
just keep on drivin' by
I've been to the temple
with dirt on my hands
I've been to the altar with unrepented sins
I've ignored the truth of God and man
i drove the nails in your hands
i drove the nails in your hands

[musical interlude]

The truth about this man
I drove the nails in Your hands
The truth about this man
I drove the nails in your hands
