Judas

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The time has finally come you get a mouth full

You only act on greed and by your actions this is proved

And can't you see all the flowers dying all around you

Got your hands in the devil's pockets got everything to lose

And so you lash out

to crush the ones below

or all the ones that you fear most

and you call this crowd control

well let me break it down for ya

The fire in your veins is just a joke you tell yourself

another way to cut the cost to hide your face from all the guilt

and is a shame you had to say you had to kill to gain control

but at least you made some money, hey let the good times roll

its your dream to be the king of all creation

as far as im concerned you hung you shadow on the wall

and though your fingers never really pulled the trigger

your hands are just as guilty your the one who brought the blood

again you lash out to hush the ones who know

cause they're the ones that you fear most

and it's called damage control

well let me break it down for ya

The fire in your veins is just a joke you tell yourself

another way to cut the cost to hide your face from all the guilt

and is a shame you had to say you had to kill to gain control

but at least you made some money, hey let the good times roll

oh my the greed has now consumed you

your eyes fade as you fall into the ocean

you move fast to feed your lust for money

you dive down now you're caught in the commotion

all this and you trade it in for nothin

a cheap lie you put it in your pocket

all this and you trade it in for nothin

oh my i can see you heart has met its end

say hello to Judas
