hindsight - wolves at the gate lyrics

Loading...

as i drift on the water, a voice calling to me had said
“sail into the harbor, cast down your nets and follow me”
first of all the chosen, i saw the raising of the dead
it must be my devotion, for i stood alone upon that sea

so i walked on the tempest, i saw the waves below my feet
it’s clear i was the bravest, to meet the stranger on the deep
i am the rock on which to build this land
got the keys to the kingdom, i’m at his right hand
i was the first among the chosen, the boldest in devotion
walking out upon the ocean, what else could i need?

i’m well-versed in forgiveness, as many as seven times repeat
in service was i fearless; attack my king, my blade you’d reap
(what else could i need?)

haunting my reflection, a bitter thought comes to my mind
i made known my objection, about how you had come to die
you said my thoughts were of the devil’s kind
i was opposed to your kingdom, and i should get behind
but you were talking like you’re cursed,
already laying in your deathbed
maybe somehow you were misled.
may it never be!

you said i would fall away before the rooster’s crow would end
to my shame did i betray, deny you as my closest friend
i’m singing, heart is hardened
i’m sleeping in the garden
i’m swinging swords i’m guarding my kingdom and my stardom

am i different than judas? for i betrayed the kindest friend
i’m all out of excuses, with nothing to make my amends
o love! o love! o love, you bottomless abyss!
o love! o love! o love, you bottomless abyss!

how tender you had spoken
though i betrayed the kindest friend
faithful in devotion, such a love i cannot comprehend

oh when you found me i was broken,
from the words that i had spoken,
but you were faithful in devotion.
you remembered me!
