The hour is near My friends still sleeping I am alone in this garden Yet all hell and heaven are watching me If only there could be Some other way than this I'm taking
I see a valley of shadow and death open wide now to swallow me Darkness awaits and my soul cries out but there will be no comfort Father if you are willing take this cup far from my lips Now that my hour has come I see the blame falling on me
O watch with me Your eyes so heavy It comes so hard To have to face this time alone Is that the door of heaven I see Closing hard against me?
Oh such a heavy load has leapt upon my shoulders History breathes atrocities into my ears Drawn from the veins of the human race I smell the serpent's poison Heaped like the blackest mountain I see the blame falling on me
My work is done The words are spoken Now like fireflies the torches dance Closer through the trees Casting shadow masks on the faces of the mob As they come like a pack of wolves for me
I am betrayed by the kiss of a friend with a voice so familiar Weapons of war for your fear as if I was a man of violence Future and past so dark are crowding in upon this moment But I am ready now to see the blame falling on me
Judas my friend, how the bag of thirty silver pieces Weighs so heavy upon your neck And how your eyes avoid mine Yes, I'm the man - why so afraid And why the weapons and the cloak of darkness - let us go nowTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
