The Judas Mirror
Nelson
You led me on and took me in
Behind the veil but never again
Will I ever betray myself surrender to a savior's hell
For seven years I'd trust in you
My innocence I gave to you
You'd turn upon this gentle soul
Destroy naivete and hope
The day I found the Judas Mirror
Shades of gray turned crystal clear and
I could see for miles and miles
Your betrayals and my denials
I swore allegiance to the flag -
Then bore your judgements on my back
As sign 'em up and rob 'em blind
Became modus operandi
Battered, bleeding, bruised of heart -
My self-esteem you tore apart
Then spoke to me with forked tongue
My game you threw and swore I'd won
Reflections in the Judas Mirror
Everything revealed so clearly
Steal a look at times gone by
And spitting out my last good-bye
Well I won't live in apathy, embittered by the memories
You haven't seen the last of me
Never, I'll never - pass your way again
I'm stunned you sleep with you each night -
An incubating parasite
When daylight shines through your disguise
The truth will lead to your demise
