30 Pieces of Silver

歌詞

What's the bottom line? Or what's the price I'd take to leave it all behind? To trade a cross of shame for glory of mankind To sell a crown of life for pennies on the dime And trade eternity for one moment in time For if the key to life is right here in my hand Why would I trade it for an hourglass of sand? Or choose the riches of this mortal coil Forego the incorruptible for praises of man All the treasure in the world so blinding 30 pieces of silver shining Tell me what's the price you seek To place the kiss of death upon His cheek? Blood money and the serpent winding 30 pieces of silver shining Treasure fades away What a price to pay anyway What's the price you've named? Well is it money, power, acceptance, or fame? And will you sell out for a temporary gain Or dare to stand up undeterred and unashamed And let the glory fall to whomever it may? When all the world is asking you to sell your soul And to deny the cross for silver and for gold The kiss of Judas or the bended knee? Vainglory or humility? The ultimate goal All the treasure in the world so blinding 30 pieces of silver shining Tell me what's the price you seek To place the kiss of death upon His cheek? Blood money and the serpent winding 30 pieces of silver shining Treasure fades away Sold out for the price of slave Treasure blinding Silver shining Redefining
