Текст Cage The Elephant – Judas

The time has finally come
You get a mouth full
You only act on greed
And by your actions this is proved

And can’t you see all the flowers dying all around you
Got your hands in the devil’s pockets
Got everything to lose

And so you lash out
To crush the ones below
Or all the ones that you fear most
And you call this crowd control
Well, let me break it down for you

The fire in your veins is just a joke you tell yourself
Another way to cut the cost to hide your face from all the guilt
And it’s a shame you had to say you had to kill to gain control
But at least you made some money, hey, let the good times roll

It’s your dream to be the king of all creation
As far as I’m concerned you hung your shadow on the wall
And though your fingers never really pulled the trigger
Your hands are just as guilty, you’re the one who brought the blood

Again you lash out to hush the ones who know
‘Cause they’re the ones that you fear most
And it’s called damage control
Well, let me break it down for you

The fire in your veins is just a joke you tell yourself
Another way to cut the cost to hide your face from all the guilt
And it’s a shame you had to say you had to kill to gain control
But at least you made some money, hey let the good times roll

Oh, my! The greed has now consumed you
Your eyes fade as you fall into the ocean

All this, and you trade it in for nothing
A cheap lie. You put it in your pocket
All this. Yeah, you trade it in for nothing
Oh, my! I can see your heart has met its end

Say hello to Judas

Say hello to Judas
Say hello to Judas
