[length: 04:12]
[00:20.47]I am tangled up in contradiction.
[00:24.01]I am strangled by my own two hands.
[00:28.75]I am hunted by the hounds of addiction.
[00:32.58]Hosanna! Hosanna!
[00:37.83]I have lied to everyone who trusts me.
[00:41.89]I have tried to fall when I could stand.
[00:46.45]I have only loved the ones who loved me.
[00:50.76]Hosanna! Hosanna!
[00:55.41]O Hosanna!
[01:00.58]See the long awaited king,
[01:03.27]Come to set his people free.
[01:05.29]We cry O Hosanna!
[01:09.82]Come and tear the temple down.
[01:12.10]Raise it up on holy ground.
[01:14.22]Hosanna! Hosanna!
[01:18.59]I have struggled to remove this raiment,
[01:19.16]Tried to hide every shimmering strand.
[01:26.42]I contend with these ghosts and these hosts of bright angels.
[01:32.53]Hosanna!
[01:36.25]I have cursed the man that you have made me.
[01:39.60]I have nursed the beast that bays for my blood.
[01:44.61]Oh, I have run from the one who would save me.
[01:48.84]Save me, Hosanna! Hosanna!
[01:54.30]O Hosanna!
[01:58.44]See the long awaited king,
[02:01.42]Come to set his people free.
[02:03.37]We cry O Hosanna!
[02:07.21]Won’t ya tear the temple down.
[02:09.43]Raise it up on holy ground.
[02:11.72]Hosanna! Hosanna!
[02:16.13]Hosanna! Hosanna!
[02:18.61]We cry for blood,
[02:23.15]And we take your life.
[02:25.38]Hosanna!
[02:29.10]We cry for blood,
[02:31.88]And we take your life.
[02:34.18]It is blood,
[02:35.75]It is life that you have given.
[02:39.14]You have crushed beneath your heel the vile serpent.
[02:44.19]You have carried to the grave the black stain.
[02:48.84]You have torn apart the temple’s holy curtain.
[02:53.31]You have beaten Death at Death’s own game.
[02:57.09]Hosanna!
[02:59.05]O Hosanna!
[03:02.32]Oh, hail the long awaited king,
[03:04.72]Come to set his people free.
[03:07.04]We cry O Hosanna!
[03:10.98]Won’t you tear this temple down,
[03:13.54]Raise it up on holy ground.
[03:16.28]O Hosanna!
[03:20.34]I will lift my voice and sing:
[03:22.54]You have come and washed me clean.
[03:24.69]Hosanna.
[03:26.69]Hosanna.
[03:28.85]Hosanna.
[03:30.74]Hosanna.
[03:32.71]O Hosanna!
[03:35.93]Hosanna.
