"Sera's Confession" lyrics
(performed by Patina Miller & Liz Callaway)
(from "Hazbin Hotel: Season Two" soundtrack)
[SERA:]
I don't know what to do
Thought I was righteously leading our people, but
Now I'm faced with the truth
What kind of leader can't tell good from evil?
All those poor souls, how many could have been saved?
How could I trust in a justice so cruel and depraved?
[SPEAKER OF GOD:]
One seeks an answer that one can not grant her
You're looking for light only you can ignite
Every transgression must serve as a lesson
Yesterday, you drew sorrow
What will you do tomorrow?
[SERA (SPEAKER OF GOD):]
I feel no wiser than when I commanded the slaughter of those sons and daughters
(You can't hide)
How can I be sure I don't repeat more massacre based on mistaken conceit?
(Look inside)
If I stand down and leave us exposed, would that be blind to the threat Hell may pose?
[SPEAKER OF GOD:]
You can't know, though time flows on
So you must bear the cross bestowed upon you
[SERA:]
Take pity, I pray
Give me a sign, what's your guidance?
Please show me the way
[SPEAKER OF GOD (SERA):]
You speak of choices made by other voices
You can only atone (Tell me how to atone)
Once you speak with your own
[SERA:]
If souls from damnation
Can earn their salvation
And find their forgiveness on high
How do I?
I don't know what to do
Thought I was righteously leading our people, but
Now I'm faced with the truth
What kind of leader can't tell good from evil?
All those poor souls, how many could have been saved?
How could I trust in a justice so cruel and depraved?
[SPEAKER OF GOD:]
One seeks an answer that one can not grant her
You're looking for light only you can ignite
Every transgression must serve as a lesson
Yesterday, you drew sorrow
What will you do tomorrow?
[SERA (SPEAKER OF GOD):]
I feel no wiser than when I commanded the slaughter of those sons and daughters
(You can't hide)
How can I be sure I don't repeat more massacre based on mistaken conceit?
(Look inside)
If I stand down and leave us exposed, would that be blind to the threat Hell may pose?
[SPEAKER OF GOD:]
You can't know, though time flows on
So you must bear the cross bestowed upon you
[SERA:]
Take pity, I pray
Give me a sign, what's your guidance?
Please show me the way
[SPEAKER OF GOD (SERA):]
You speak of choices made by other voices
You can only atone (Tell me how to atone)
Once you speak with your own
[SERA:]
If souls from damnation
Can earn their salvation
And find their forgiveness on high
How do I?
