Those faithless eyes, filled with timeless beauty
Those mindless tears, to greet the new day
Can you hear my words, or is it endless glory?
What’s your rhyme? What’s your story?
Send forth your wonders, they don’t fill my heart
Tell me why now, did this ever start?
Do we fail now, for we did not pass?
I’m afraid you’ve broken, my heart of glass.
Betray me with a kiss, you dream of death,
Sacrifice me, to a brand new birth
Heart of Judas, and trembling hands,
Don’t worry Angel, they’ll understand
Forget the sunlight, forget the rain
I lived and died here – but ne’er again
And back and forth, your body died,
Heart of Judas, the whole world cried
