Three Times

I swore I would never let him down

And he looked at me

He looked right through me and said

"Three times before the rooster cries

Three times you will deny"

I went to his trap, you were there

I still thought I could save him

One of the servants looked at me

And said, "Where were you, one of his?"

All I wanted was to stay alive

To know the man, I lied

Gathered quickly and went outside

At the gate, this painted whore began to shout

"Hey, here's one more"

All I wanted was to stay alive

To know the man, I lied

And pushing past, I left her side

In discreet

I gathered in crowd, doubts my sniffs

Chanting out loud

He was his favorite, it's all lies, I cried

To know the man at all

I hope he dies

Three times the rooster cried

Three times I denied

Just like he prophesized

Three times I denied

Can I save him?

I've never tried, I'll save myself

Run away to hide

I was his rock, "Stay with me," he prayed

He died there alone

He died betrayed

Three times the rooster cried

Three times I denied

Just like he prophesized

All I wanted was to die

Die
