Thirty Silver

Did not expect to see your face After the disgrace You circumvented Anathema, yet here you stand Six-pack in your hand I thought we ended this You sat and watched the world burn Thinking it might turn A little profit You crossed you heart and hoped to die A needle in your eye An interesting thought In your wake, calamity (seeing you) Waiting to befall (seeing me) The scar becomes your memory (watch you burn) As winter turns to fall Feint of confusion in your eyes Cue the lullabies Awash in gaslight Can't see the forest for the trees Or are they shrubberies But I can see right through An offer chosen to entice Becomes a hefty price Thirty silver It's in the details do you dwell Like a cancer cell Intent to multiply In your wake, calamity (spreading lies) Waiting to befall (sowing fear) The scar becomes your memory (so cavalier) As winter turns to fall This time around I'm disinclined There's trouble close behind When you come hither Your thirty silver's not enough Therefore I rebuff So kindly slither on In your wake, calamity (go away) Waiting to befall (come again) The scar becomes your memory (another day) As winter turns to fall
