Gethsemane (I Only Wanted to Say)

Jesus christ superstar - Gethsemane (I only want to say)

I only want to say
If there is a way
Take this cup away from me
For I don't want to taste its poison
Feel it burn me
I have changed
I'm not as sure
As when we started
Then I was inspired
Now I'm sad and tired
Listen surely I've exceeded
Expectations
Tried for three years
Seems like thirty
Could you ask as much
from any other man?

But if I die
See the saga through
And do the things you ask me
Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me
Nail me to their tree.

I'd want to know, I'd want to know my God
I'd want to know, I'd want to know my God
I'd want to see, I'd want to see my God
I'd want to see, I'd want to see my God

Why I Should die
Would I be more noticed than I ever was before?
Would the things I've said and done matter anymore?

I'd have to know, I'd have to know my Lord
I'd have to know, I'd have to know my Lord
I'd have to see, I'd have to see my Lord
I'd have to see, I'd have to see my Lord
If I die what wil be my reward?
If I die what wil be my reward?
I'd have to know, I'd have to know my Lord
I'd have to know, I'd have to know my Lord

Why, why should I die?
Oh, why should I die?
Can you show me now
That I would not be killed in vain?
Show me just a little
Of your omnipresent brain
Show me there is a reason
For you wanting me to die
You're far too keen on where and how
But not so hot on why

Alright I'll die!
Just watch me die!
See how, see how I die!
Oh, just see me die!

Then I was inspired
Now I'm sad and tired
After all I've tried for three years
Seems like ninety
Why then am I
scared to finish
what I started
What you started I didn't start it
God thy will is hard
But you hold every card
I will drink your cup of poison
Nail me to you cross and break me
Bleed me, beat me, Kil me, take me now
Before I change my mind
