Never felt so alone
Stretched to my core and bone
Encompassed by sand dune
Distant hisses of rattle snakes
Merchants and mercenaries selling fakes
Behind my soul train of shame and capes
A certified loner on this Silk Road
A seeker longing for something to hold
I locked eyes with Jesus as he was being sold
For 30 pieces of silver like a lab rat
Something in me was falling apart
He told me it was the cost of my paper heart
Crazy how he is willing to die for it
Huh, how could he see treasure in this guilt
scribble his signature to make it legit
I wont even give a gift of me to me
But he would wear me like a pendant on his sleeve
Close to where those nails bore
It's what i still adore
