This is an incredible ending to the truly amazing story that is the Seraphic Clockwork. The main character has found a way to transport himself back in time to betray Jesus so that through his death the world could be saved. His task is a horrible one and he clearly struggles with it ("Why me? Why not anybody else?"). He must take the role of Judas, betray the son of God, and then go down in history as one of the most vilified people to walk the earth. In the end he follows through with his task and the world is saved, but the main character is stuck with the knowledge that he caused a horrible thing to happen to Jesus and he must now live with it.
You are absolutely correct; I am thankful you have done your research. Few people are aware of this album's conceptual originality, ingenuity, depth, suitability for the musical surroundings, and most importantly of all, its devastating spiritual resonance. Several songs on this album affect me in the ethereal manner most commonly characteristic to overtly religious music; the ending to this song is one of those moments. This band taught me so much.
