"Judas" lyrics

"Judas"

We circle the void
Waiting for a saviour
A light in the dark amidst our despair
A feeble fraud
With open arms we endure
The hand of god never felt so impure

Judas
Turned your flock away
Serpent
Usurp your way to the grave
You'd lie your way into heaven
To slaughter the angels

Pulled by our throats
A contagion of misery
Leading the rats to their lobotomies
Cursed by all
Adored by none
And slowly your guise is undone

An all consuming hate
Pulses through the strings you manipulate

Judas
Turned your flock away
Serpent
Usurp your way to the grave
You'd lie your way into heaven
To slaughter the angels
I see that crown of thorns bearing down
The burden of all the souls you denounce
Is nothing sacred
You always did see red

A calloused heart
Tearing your whole world apart
Rage filled veins fit to burst
'Cause nothing seems to satisfy your thirst

Judas
Turned your flock away
Serpent
Usurp your way to the grave
You'd lie your way into heaven
To slaughter the angels
I see that crown of thorns bearing down
The burden of all the souls you denounce
Is nothing sacred
You always did see red
