Here  in a church,  a small  boy is  kneeling
He  prays to a god,  he does  not know, he  cannot feel
All  of his sins  of childhood  he will  remember
He  will not cry, tears  he will not cry
Man  of sorrows, I  won't see your face
Man  of sorrows, you  left without a trace
A  small boy wonders, what  was it all about?
Is  your journey over  - has  it just begun?
 A vision of a new world, from the ashes of the old
 "Do what thou wilt!", he screams from his cursed soul
 A tortured seer, a prophet of our emptiness
 Wondering why, wondering why...
 Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
 Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
 A small boy wonders, what was it all about?
 Is your journey over - has it just begun?
 A man of sorrows racked, with thoughts that dare not
 speak their name
 trapped inside a body, made to feel only guilt and shame
 His anger all his life -"I hate myself!", he cried
 "Do what thou wilt! - do what thou wilt!", he cried
 Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
 Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
 A small boy wonders, what was it all about?
 Is your journey over - has it just begun?
 Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
 Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
 A small boy wonders, what was it all about?
 Is your journey over - has it just begun?
