Gethsemane
I'm the realest one that you'll ever meet
You try to stop me and you can't get rid of me
In my garden I pray twice for my enemies
But always pray thrice for my friends and me
In my garden it is filled with centipedes
In yours a statue of innocence is your centerpiece
I felt it in my soul that there won't ever be no rest for me
Because deep down I know that revenge ultimately can't bring peace
There's no release
That's why I pay my full in Gethsemane
That's why I pay my full in Geth
The abomination sits on his jade throne
He's so known
Our desolation led to a reign of fool's gold
Our goal was return the stone so we could claim the throne
I know it sounds insane, but that's the truth and here's the proof
We failed and now we're doomed
Our time has come too soon
Because we pushed untruth
The sun becomes the moon
All men become baboons
And I just gotta wonder
Why'd we become war mongers
I sit and I ponder
What would life be like if the pond in this garden hadn't dried up
And I wander to the gate
I get my head straight
Sittin' on the centerpiece of innocence I wait
But the date won't come when we reprise our priorities
I realize since I'm a righteous man I'm in the minority
We've been battered and broken since '73
Feels like it's just me
God's lonely beast
It's only Zeke
And at the same time I can't silence the beast in me
It's howling and scratching at my arteries
Gethsemane Gethsemane
I'm sweating' dripping' blood in
Gethsemane Gethsemane
I'm regretting' false tongue in
Gethsemane Gethsemane
Gethsemane
You try to stop me and you can't get rid of me
In my garden I pray twice for my enemies
But always pray thrice for my friends and me
In my garden it is filled with centipedes
In yours a statue of innocence is your centerpiece
I felt it in my soul that there won't ever be no rest for me
Because deep down I know that revenge ultimately can't bring peace
There's no release
That's why I pay my full in Gethsemane
That's why I pay my full in Geth
The abomination sits on his jade throne
He's so known
Our desolation led to a reign of fool's gold
Our goal was return the stone so we could claim the throne
I know it sounds insane, but that's the truth and here's the proof
We failed and now we're doomed
Our time has come too soon
Because we pushed untruth
The sun becomes the moon
All men become baboons
And I just gotta wonder
Why'd we become war mongers
I sit and I ponder
What would life be like if the pond in this garden hadn't dried up
And I wander to the gate
I get my head straight
Sittin' on the centerpiece of innocence I wait
But the date won't come when we reprise our priorities
I realize since I'm a righteous man I'm in the minority
We've been battered and broken since '73
Feels like it's just me
God's lonely beast
It's only Zeke
And at the same time I can't silence the beast in me
It's howling and scratching at my arteries
Gethsemane Gethsemane
I'm sweating' dripping' blood in
Gethsemane Gethsemane
I'm regretting' false tongue in
Gethsemane Gethsemane
Gethsemane
