Song Description

A song of betrayal and redemption

Lyrics

Justine

Well I heard a rumor about you last night.
Everybody's talking. Everybody's right.
You cannot believe what you see with your eyes.
So give me one thing real, and I'll pay the price.

I'll pick up the pieces that you would never keep,
Still the picture is incomplete.
And pray to Jesus that while you sleep,
You pay the holy roller to justify your deeds.
Sanctify your dreams.
Now you're crucified Justine.

So you're living with a truth that you can't fight.
Living in this world and you want paradise.
So you may not believe, and you may not survive.
But there is one thing real that you can recognize.

I'll pick up the pieces that you would never keep,
Still the picture is incomplete.
And pray to Jesus that while you sleep,
You pay the holy roller to justify your deeds.
Sanctify your dreams.
Now you're crucified Justine.

You know where you're going because you've already been
You want to get out but you know you're locked in
So you bury your head and you close your eyes
You give it all away and still you wonder why

I'll pick up the pieces that you would never keep,
Still the picture is incomplete.
And pray to Jesus that while you sleep,
You pay the holy roller to justify your deeds.
Sanctify your dreams.
Now you're crucified Justine.
