Testo Judas

Testo Judas

Midday light, the earth jump started
lying in a bed
No burning arms, no shivering back
there's nothing in my head
The world revolves so fast around
don't let it in the way
The gift that morning light has brought mi is
just another day

Judas died upon a tree
before the Christ was slain
And all I've ever asked of you
is give me back my name
You've got everything

Praise the bridge that brought me here
and curse the one ahead
If only I could see you
I'd retrace the path you led
But you're not flesh and you've no face
and now you've left me blind
No strength to find the way ahead
and you've burnt all that's behind

Judas died upon a tree
before the Christ was slain
And all I've ever asked of you
is give me back my name
You've got everything

God lives on a tree lined street
in a better part of town
He touches those who help him
and he turns the others down
My midday morning profit
he rises every day
He takes all God's good helpers
and pushes them my way

Judas died upon a tree
before the Christ was slain
And all I've ever asked of you
is give me back my name
You've got everything
