Could they not have known what they have done
Sentenced the only pure thing left
That graces the dirt on this earth to death
Betrayal is an easy way out to let a filthy tyrant run free
Had we have ever known that He'd still love us
After we turned our backs and left him in the shadows
Where the sun still shines as bright as a thousand torches
Open the gates rip the blood-stained clothes from his back
Still he wore courage tightly wrapped around his neck
