"In a house where no one never sleeps,
lays a man who sees more with his eyes
Picturing the past before him,
in a bed, alone, with clothes on
Paying for a service he doesn't really need"
He has gone to a brothel to do something, try anything, to help him forget his past. But he ends up thinking about it anyway.
"With his eyes, he sees more love and lust
more tears, far too much to handle
Can't tell a soul, not this time, they'd lock him right up
Too much of burning bushes too much for his weak soul"
He is remembering all the love and compassion Jesus had and is comparing it to the lust (love of the silver and his self interest) in himself. He experienced God's love firsthand and it is to much for him to think about - the fact he was so weak to betray a love like that.
"In his mind, oh so jaded, he's gone too far behind
Of all the visions seen, this one makes him scream"
He has done terrible things in his life, likely in anger at being cursed or to help him forget the curse at least for a little while. He knows his acts are wrong because he was once 'good'. Yet he convinces himself he is justified. While he may be able to deal with the bad things he does surrounding his curse, there is one thing which he will never come to terms with...
"He cannot live neither die in this world
Burning sensation inside, you know how that hurts?
Making up for the crimes of your life
With scythe as your sword,
you must fight 'till the end of time"
Like I said, he is cursed to live forever. The guilt will never leave him. And his punishment is to wrestle with it until the end of time.
"Don't look behind, or you will fall through the time
Only time can make you see behind of the curtain hiding
the secret. Your time is up when you see the light"
He trys to make himself stop thinking about his act or it will consume him entirely. He just has to move on with his life somehow knowing he will eventually die. But he will only be saved when he 'see the light", or when Jesus returns.
"You can live as a noble man but when time,
You won't be left behind
With the sound of time ringing in his head,
He leaves the house where no-one never sleeps
Job well done knowing that at least one will be pleased
Hiding is always useless, pictures will fade with time
Seeking for a winner of the day, prize of life is here
Of all the visions seen this one makes him scream"
He is trying to convince himself that he can get around his curse by being 'noble'. He took no pleasure in the sex, so he believes he sacrificed himself to make someone happy. Shouldn't that count to lessen his sentance? He can't escape his fate, but maybe he can make it easier. It seems like he starts to forget, but then immediately he is brough back to the day he took the silver for the betrayal. He thought he was on top of the world with a lot of money. But then he recalls what it all meant in the end, and he is consumed once again with his agony.
The guy is Judas.
