Song of Peter's Denial

 

After all that I had said

After all that I had promised I would do

I never dreamed

It would all end like this

 

I thought that I would be a rock

Thought I would weather all the fear

But now I find here at the end

I was too weak to resist

 

And all the words I promised you

Come crashing down

Useless 'round my feet

 

Remembrances of my promises

Flood back over me

And remind me of my defeat

 

I said that I would follow

I even promised you I would die

But when the choice had to be made

I left you all alone

 

So any expectations

Now all I have are regrets

And empty words that fog my mind

You cut me to the bone

 

CHORUS

 

And now if you were here

Could you still look on me with eyes of love

Kept choosing to deny time and again

As if once was not enough

 

If only I had listened

Maybe I could have been strong

But even as you warned me

I swore that you were wrong

 

I swore that you were wrong

 

How I wish you had been wrong

 

CHORUS


Of my defeat

 

Of my defeat
