"Lost Cause" lyrics
Original Cast Of His Story The Musical Lyrics
(performed by Giovanni Beatty, Black Gryph0n & Chase Crandell)
(from "His Story The Musical" soundtrack)
[JUDAS:]
After He took His last breath
I could breathe again and see
But what I saw I hated
I hated every part of me
The worst part is I did this
He's not coming back
No hope
So I have to live in the regret
That I killed my friend
Or maybe I don't
Look at me a killer
And for 30 coins of silver
He's right, it's finished now
I'll end this with a final breath
Sentence my own self to death
The only light is this house burning down
Some stories don't end with happy endings
So does mine to say
So I'll be the guy who ran away
Some scars are beautiful
But some like His
They can't be mended
See what I took away
God look away
I'm a lost cause
'Cause I don't wanna be found
I just wanna be free now, don't reground
Just leave me be now
I'm a lost cause
God I don't wanna see now
'Cause His blood is on me now
Don't rebound
'Cause now that He's gone
I don't know how to be now
[PETER:]
After He took His last breath
I couldn't speak or breathe
The betrayal of a friend
Was the last thing He would see
The worst part is He predicted I would slip
I swore I wouldn't
So I'll try to mend the shattered
Or maybe I shouldn't?
Look at me, I lost Him
For pride I double crossed Him
He's right, it's finished now
I look at me I rewind
Not once or twice but three times
Sure my fishing nets are waiting
In my hometown
'Cause I'm a lost cause
My Shepherd is nowhere to be found
I'm just a wandering sheep now
I'll see now
Without His strength
I'm extremely weak now
I'm a lost cause
I think I forgot how to breathe now
As the weight of the world falls on me now
I'll flee now
'Cause now that He's gone
I don't know how to be now
[JUDAS:]
Took the devil's hand
When I saw that he reached out
One thing to another
He was covering my mouth
He tripped me, I fell
He invited me to hell
Well I guess I sold my soul
And I did this to myself
'Cause I'm a lost cause
[PETER:]
I don't know how to be found
[JUDAS:]
Rope round my neck and a tree now
[PETER & JUDAS:]
Can't reground
[JUDAS:]
That's it for me now
[PETER & JUDAS:]
I'm a lost cause
[JUDAS:]
Guess I'll say bye to me now
Let's count down from three now
Can't reground
[THE FATHER:]
Just come back to Me now
[JUDAS:]
No! Now that He's gone
I don't know how to be now
I'm a lost cause
Now that He's gone
I don't know how to be found
After He took His last breath
I could breathe again and see
But what I saw I hated
I hated every part of me
The worst part is I did this
He's not coming back
No hope
So I have to live in the regret
That I killed my friend
Or maybe I don't
Look at me a killer
And for 30 coins of silver
He's right, it's finished now
I'll end this with a final breath
Sentence my own self to death
The only light is this house burning down
Some stories don't end with happy endings

'Cause I don't wanna be found
I just wanna be free now, don't reground
Just leave me be now

'Cause His blood is on me now
