Gethsemane

I only want to say

If there is a way

Take this cup away from me

For I don't want to taste its poison

Feel it burn me

I have changed

I'm not as sure, as when we started

Then, I was inspired

Now, I'm sad and tired

Listen, surely I've exceeded expectations

Tried for three years, seems like thirty

Could you ask as much from any other man?

But if I die

See the saga through, do the things you ask of me

Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me, nail me to their tree

I'd want to know, I'd want to know, My God

I'd want to know, I'd want to know, My God

I'd want to see, I'd want to see, My God

I'd want to see, I'd want to see, My God

Why I should die

Would I be more noticed than I ever was before?

Would the things I've said and done matter any more?

I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord

I'd have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord

I'd have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord

I'd have to see, I'd have to see, my Lord

If I die what will be my reward?

If I die what will be my reward?

Have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord

Have to know, I'd have to know, my Lord

Why should I die? Why should I die?

Can you show me now that I would not be killed in vain?

Show me just a little of your omnipresent brain

Show me there's a reason for your wanting me to die

You're far to keen and where and how, but not so hot on why

Alright, I'll die!

Just watch me die!

See how I die!

See how I die!

Then I was inspired

Now, I'm sad and tired

After all, I've tried for three years, seems like ninety

Why then am I scared to finish what I started

What you started, I didn't start it

God, thy will is hard

But you hold every card

I will drink your cup of poison

Nail me to your cross and break me
