It was an open and shut case
I was guilty as sin
There was blood on my hands
I was waiting to be condemned
You get what you pay for
And you pay for what you do
How could the judge be talking to me
When he looked down and said
"You're free"
And there is no need to explain
And there is nothing you could ever say
To change the way I feel for you
How can this be true?
What kind of place is this?
Where the guilty are forgiven
Where the blind can see and losers win
And slaves go free and where
There is no need to explain
And there is nothing we could ever say
To change the way he feels
Where there are debt
Tthat have been paid
And there's a stone
That has been rolled away
To say there is no need
Hurry, hurry
Drop your stuff, grab your friends
Take everyone we can
Together, we'll find mercy for all
We'll walk, we'll run, we'll crawl
Unconditional, there's a word
That seems so foreign
Unbelievable, but undeniable
Inconceivable and yet so true
There is no need to explain
And there is nothing we could ever say
To change the way he feels
And there are debts
That have been paid
And there's a rolled stone
At an empty grave
To say there is no need
No need to explain.
