It's The Savior Of Humankind
If people listened
to the voice of conscience,
they wouldn't do insane things
to mess up their lives;
no amout of money
is worth the betrayal.
Reading from the Bible's pages,
we find out who did
just that in the quickest way.
Lord, greed replaced Judah's pity;
Lord, envy raged in his troubled soul!
Who's the King that promises Paradise
without asking anything in return?
Who's the Preacher that teaches us
to pray in the holiest way?
Do we smile, turn away, or frown?
Everything lost is vanity!
It's the Savior of Humankind,
bleeding for each sin,
for each wicked deed done;
it's the Savior of Humankind
taking our stained hand
to cleanse it of all guilt,
making it totally forget
what it led it to the wrong path!
Does a strong mind become weak
giving itself to useless fears...
instead of finding calm waters!
No amount of money
is worth the betrayal,
which one do we choose
not to be confined to scary Hell?
Those moments of elusive joys
won't last, throw them away!
