Betrayer

It was too much for my eyes to take when I stepped onto the scene 
But something drove me deeper still with this band of angry screams 
"Friend, finish what you came here for," when I kissed his tear stained cheek 
And though I sparked this catalyst I was too afraid to speak

And nothing I coud ever do could take away this pain 
And I just stare at these bloody hands

I was finished with my duties then when I turned to walk away 
But I shuttered at the work I'd done when I saw his broken face 
And the clouds took over everything when his breath escaped no more 
The others had deserved this fate, but surely he was something more

Chorus

Some would say it's not our fault 
Hell, we weren't even born 
But I know I'm the reason that the thorns and nails were ever worn

There is only one thing that could take away this pain 
And I just stare at his bloody hands
