You Call Yourself a Shepherd
by Empty, Jeremy Schaeffer

Album: Hope and the Loss of It

Verse 1
The ship is crashing and I'm seeing red
Oh, how I wish to pull you under with me
You stand for nothing and you prey on the weak
A false Shepherd herding sheep

Breakdown 1
Falter
Failure
Practice what you preach
No hope
No peace
Til you're lost at sea
Falter
Failure
Practice what you preach
No hope
No peace
Til you're lost at sea

Chorus
Pray for hope
Pray for peace
You won't find mercy in deceit
You've lost your heart but what's done is done
You're only speaking in tongues

Breakdown 2
Father
Forgive
They let the truth decay
Savior
Savior
Please show them the way

Verse 2
When lies speak louder than truth
We're tired and won't take the abuse
Every secret we found each one
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done

Chorus
Pray for hope
Pray for peace
You won't find mercy in deceit
You've lost your heart but what's done is done
You're only speaking in tongues
Pray for hope
Pray for peace
?
You're only speaking in tongues

Outro
All morals cast aside
Your true self cleverly disguised
The weak will fall to their knees
But I refuse to live in deceit
All morals cast aside
Your true self cleverly disguised
The weak will fall to their knees
But I refuse to live in deceit
