Savatage - The Rumor

Jesus What's the reason For these scars that will never heal Hearts that no longer feel Eyes that can no longer see Jesus What's the reason For this child that will not survive With all her dreams inside Could she mean nothing to thee And jesus please tell me if you can recall Just where you were when this sparrow did fall Jesus What's the reason Every tear isn't weighed the same Could you have died in vain If we have short memories And jesus would you then come down from your cross Return every nail and say we are lost And in the dark we seek your silent company For each hope that arrives and fades from memory Still after all this time our loss you won't concede For in the dead of night the rumor is Your hands they still bleed Still bleed Still bleed Still bleed Jesus It would seem then That somehow you still trust You have more faith than us Perhaps that is how it should be
