Betray Lyrics

You will betray me, baby, and
I will be true.
I only ask, "May I share dinner with you?"

You will betray me, baby, and
I will be true.
I only ask, "May I share dinner with you?"
(repeat 2 more times)

I only ask, "May I share one more with you?"

This song puts into simple terms the relationship between Jesus and the church.

My Interpretation

I was thinking something similar: more along the lines of Jesus and Judas at the Last Supper. But your interpretation definitely fits as well.

I absolutely think that Ryan Lott could be referencing Judas specifically in this song. The question we must ask ourselves is how do we relate to Judas, both as individuals and collectively as a body of believers.

Did God reach down and save Judas from eternal damnation? We don't know and therefore all glory remains rightly with God. The same is true for each of us. While we are offered salvation through faith alone, God's soveriegnty is never placed in doubt due to our choices.

I can see this as a very deep metaphor, but to me this is just a sad post breakup song. He was loyal to the girl, but she still left him. She betrayed him and he saw it coming but he still loved her and just wants to spend more time with her, like talking at dinner.

My Interpretation

This is obviously using imagery from the last supper, but it's about a guy who wants to sleep with a lady even though he knows she's a cheater and that he needs to put an end to their relationship once and for all.
