Judas isn't simplistic. At all.
"When he comes to me I am ready
I’ll wash his feet with my hair if he needs
Forgive him when his tongue lies through his brain
Even after three times he betrays me"
"I’ll bring him down, bring him down, down
A king with no crown, king with no crown"
"I couldn’t love a man so purely
Even prophets forgave his crooked way
I’ve learned love is like a brick you can
Build a house or sink a dead body"
"In the most Biblical sense,
I am beyond repentance
Fame hooker, prostitute wench, vomits her mind
But in the cultural sense
I just speak in future tense
Judas, kiss me if offenced,
Or wear an ear condom next time"
The religious symbolism..
No artist this year has released as an artistic, symbolic song similar to Judas.
