Here in a church a small boy is kneeling
  He prays to a god he doesn't know, he cannot feel
  All of his sins of childhood he will remember
  He will not cry, tears he will not cry
    CHORUS:
  Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
  Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
  His 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
    REPEAT CHORUS
    SOLO
    A man of sorrow's wrecked 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
    REPEAT CHORUS (x2)
    Has it just begun?
