It is so that my transgressions have born a withered fruit,
The sun has scorched the rising plants;
Alas they have no root, the bleached bones of animals bound by leather strips,
Dance through the air with laughter as i wield this wicked whip,
As you did warn me carpenter, this world has weakened my heart,
So easily i disparage, self-seeking the work of my art,
And there you have come to me at the moment i bathe in my sorrow,
So in love with myself, sought after avoiding tomorrow,
Where do you find the love to offer he who betrays you?
And offer to wash my feet as i offer to disobey you,
Your beauty does bereave me, and how my words do fail,
So faithfully and dutifully i award you with betrayal,
The weak and the down trodden fall on broken legs,
As i walk past a smile i cast, fervor in my stead,
But my bones like plastic, do buckle backward now,
I lay in this field by Judas' bowels and anticipate the plow,
I can not be forgiven; my wages will be paid,
For those more lovely and admirable is least among the saved,
And where would i fit Jesus?
What place is left for me?
The price of atonement is more than i've found to offer up as my plea,
Jesus my heart is all i have to give to you, so weak and so unworthy,
This simply will not do, no alabaster jar, no diamond in the rough,
For your body that was broken, how can this be enough?
By me you were abandoned, by me you were betrayed,
Yet in your arms and in your heart forever i have stayed
Your glory illuminates my life, and no darkness will descend,
For you have loved me forever, and your love will never end

Showbread è una rock band cristiana americana originaria di Guyton, Georgia. Formatasi nel 1997, il gruppo ha subito numerose modifiche nella formazione nel corso degli anni, pur mantenendo i due membri fondatori, Josh Dies e Patrick Porter. Dies è il principale compositore e direttore creativo di Showbread, garantendo una coerenza stilistica nonostante le variazioni della band. Fino al 2007, la band ha avuto due cantanti principali, tra cui Ivory Mobley. Josh Dies è anche autore dei romanzi "The Spinal Cord Perception", "The Insect" e "Nevada". Showbread ha attirato l'attenzione dei media nel 2006 quando un video fan per il brano "Dead By Dawn" è stato pubblicato su YouTube. Il video, visto dalla band e condiviso sul loro sito web, ha scatenato controversie riguardo ai temi lirici di Showbread. Secondo l'ex chitarrista Matt Davis, il nome del gruppo deriva da "un riferimento biblico che Gesù ha usato per dimostrare come il cristianesimo non sia tanto legato alle regole quanto all'amore".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
