lyrics
You said you wanted to be
Ma-ma-ma married to me
But now I’m buried so deep
In this cemetery
You know you ripped out my heart
When you said you needed a new start
You said you couldn’t do it with me
You left me all alone
Coughin’ up blood
Just skin and bones
Broke it off on the telephone
At least now I know
You’re my Judas
J-J-Judas
Now I see the truth,
I see through ya
You’re my Judas
J-J-Judas
Now I see straight through ya
I’m gonna ressurect
Pull myself from this mess
Brush the dirt off my dress
You can’t lay me to rest
Lay me to rest
I know that you know
You took me
For everything I was worth
I hope that you’re happy with those silver coins in your purse
Cause I’m the best now
No time for rest now
You're on the bench now
Take a break a wet towel
This is my spotlight
This is my stage
Step aside and read about it on the frontpage
You left me when I was so damn sick
I didn’t even get flowers you just ran and you hid
After 3 whole years, is this what I get?
But I’m a better woman because of what you did
And now that I’m better
Let this song be your letter
About all the stormy weather
That you caused in my life
All the pain all the strife
All the sleepless nights
I was fighting for my life
No it just wasn’t right
It was nothing I deserved
It was bad you made it worse
I almost left town in the back of a black hearse
I pulled a red lipstick out of a black purse
And I sang till my story was heard
You left me all alone
Sicker than hell
Just skin and bones
Broke it off on the telephone
At least now you know
You’re my Judas
J-J-Judas
Now I see the truth,
I see through ya
You’re my Judas
J-J-Judas
Now I see straight through ya
I’m gonna ressurect
Pull myself from this mess
Brush the dirt off my dress
You can’t lay me to rest
Lay me to rest
You’re looking at me like you’ve just seen a ghost
Raise your wine in the air
Break your bread
Make a toast
And you better thank God
I made it out alive
I’m not the type of girl just to lay down and die
You’re my Judas
J-J-Judas
Now I see the truth,
I see through ya
You’re my Judas
J-J-Judas
Now I see straight through ya
I’m gonna ressurect
Pull myself from this mess
Brush the dirt off my dress
You can’t lay me to rest
Lay me to rest
I never would have done these things to ya, Judas
I never would have done these things to ya, Judas
