| Blind Guardian – Sadly Sings Destiny Lyrics | 14 years ago |

I personally think it's from Judas' point of view, as many of the lines fit that idea. 'It doesn't matter anymore that someone's knocking at my door I've known it long before the Galilean's on the floor Shame on me, shame on me I'm a tool and nothing more' after his realization that what he did was just make him more of a pawn 'I can feel it's getting nearer Images they'll turn out clearer Creeps in and out of your mind I'm destiny personified I know there's something more behind But is it really justified To sacrifice, to crucify The rescue of the human kind' him being 'destiny personified' relfects how Jesus told him he would betray him, and the second half is him asking himself and those around him, is it really worth it to kill Jesus to save humankind? 'Begging for a last chance I hear the voices say "We get him home tonight and that's all you need to know" I'm alone So I can't stand it any longer And don't want to see it all Nazarene, your vision will come true Will come true They'll get you ' That is Judas pleading with the guards and the heads of the Jewish council, giving his money back and everything and being denied, and the second part is him giving up on life, getting ready to kill himself, and his last words to Jesus. And there, his part in the song ends and the chorus takes back up, which is what actually happens. |
