lyrics

BETRAYER
Written by: Glaurys Ariass, Helsa Ariass, and EARTHA

They call you the betrayer
As if you’re the only one
But someone else knows what you did
Was what had to be done

They say you were an evil man;
Your actions proved it true
Chosen for that dreadful role
That you were born to do

It would have been someone else
had it not been you

Probably would have done the same
If I had your shoes
I’d curse the day that I was born
A life I did not choose (did not choose)

How could you know that you would be
In this eternal plan
A tool to name in infamy
In war for soul of man

It would have been someone else
had it not been you

We curse your name with our last breath
The one to blame for the Lord’s death
Who loved a world, which he did frame
His honor replaced and reduced to shame

And if I had your lot and His fate were sealed
My run would seem eternal to Potter’s field
I could not bear the weight, I would agonize
And wonder how could I live this (dreadful) life

That someone could have been me.
Dreadful life(Dreadful life)
That someone could have been me
Dreadful life
Could have been me had it not been you

They call you the betrayer
As if you’re the only one
But someone else knows what you did
Was what had to be done

They say you were an evil man;
Your actions proved it true
Chosen for that dreadful role
That you were born to do

It would have been someone else
had it not been you

I probably would have done the same
If I had your shoes
I’d curse the day that I was born
A life I did not choose (choose)

How could you know that you would be
In this eternal plan
A tool to name in infamy
In war for soul of man

It would have been someone else
had it not been you

It would have been someone else
had it not been you (Betrayer, Betrayer, Betrayer)
It would have been someone else
had it not been you (Betrayer, Betrayer, Betrayer)
It would have been me
had it not been you (Betrayer, Betrayer)
