Judas Lyrics

[ENSEMBLE]
Lazarus is dead
Oh, Lazarus is dead

[JESUS]
Really dead

[ENSEMBLE]
Really dead
Ooh

[JESUS]
What was it like?
I want to know you, really know you
What was it like?
I want to know you, really know you

[LAZARUS]
(hums)

[JESUS]
I'm gonna have to do this too

[SATAN]
You could get some pretty silver off of this one
You could make yourself some pretty coin

[JUDAS]
You mean betray what I love?

[JESUS]
But I need it

[SATAN]
She needs it

[JUDAS]
Surely not I, surely not I, surely not I

[JESUS]
It's okay, Judas
Betray me one cheek at a time
Betray me one cheek at a time

[JUDAS]
Who made this puppet?
Who made this puppet?
And who made me?
And who made You?
And who made You?

Who made this silver?
Who made these damn poles?
Who made all these distractions
That cause the suffering in my soul?
The suffering in my soul

I don't need a bunch of rules on how to live my life
I just wanna know why to live at all

[JESUS]
Foxes have their holes
But I have nowhere to lay my head
I have nowhere to lay my head

[JUDAS]
Who made this puppet?
Who made this puppet?
This ugliness can't be me
This ugliness can't be me

Oh, God, this is so damn silly
Oh, God, this is so messed up
(laughs)

[JESUS]
Why are you laughing?
Are you laughing in wonder?
Are you laughing in disbelief?

[JUDAS]
I don't know

[JESUS/JUDAS]
(laugh together)

I just wanna know where it starts and stops
I wanna who I am

[JESUS]
I need this

[JUDAS]
I don't understand

[JESUS]
But you love me, and I love you
So do quickly what you are going to do
