The Carpenter Lyrics

Who are you?

Man condemned to shine a salvation
throughout the centuries.
Why was the wine of the grail
too sour for man to drink?

The carpenter carved his anchor
on the dying souls of mankind.
On the tomb of this unknown soldier
lay the tools of the one who for us had died.

Tools of the carpenter!

The one they lick the same old sick dream
of their precious saviour.
Kiss them deep and make them weep
over promises of eternal peace.

The carpenter carved his anchor
on the dying souls of mankind.
On the tomb of this unknown soldier
lay the tools of the one who for us had died.

Tools of the carpenter!

I hear you through
the symphonic voices of nature,
the purity I could never doubt.

They tell me to lie on the grass
and observe my saviour.
The one crucified to
the chirping of birds.

The carpenter carved his anchor
on the dying souls of mankind.
On the tomb of this unknown soldier
lay the tools of the one who for us had died.

Tools of the carpenter!
