[style: grunge, alternative rock, emotive vocals] [instruments: electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, live drums] [mood: dark, soulful, spiritual] [Verse 1] In the silence of my shadow, I hear a voice that calls my name It ain’t mercy, it ain’t sorrow It’s the fire that burns through shame [Pre-Chorus] He’s hanging high, bleeding slow But he never feels alone ’Cause when I fall into the night I feel his pain as my own [Chorus] I call the man on the cross my brother Not a ghost, not a god, but another Wounded soul who still believes That love can rise from shattered knees Yeah, I call the man on the cross my brother [Verse 2] I’ve walked through hell with broken shoes Torn by lies and shattered truth But his eyes, they hold a storm Like the sky before it’s born [Pre-Chorus] He’s hanging there, cracked but strong And he’s been there all along Through every curse, through every loss He reminds me of the cost [Chorus] I call the man on the cross my brother Not a king, not a saint, just another Flesh and blood who bore the flame And still forgives without a name Yeah, I call the man on the cross my brother [Bridge] We are dust and sacred sin Still we reach, we break, we bend But in that face I find the proof That pain can still be truth [Final Chorus] I call the man on the cross my brother In the silence, we find each other Bleeding hearts that beat the same Calling love out of the flame Yeah, I call the man on the cross my brother...
