I'm living with confusion, it's like a bad dream
Dipping bread in a dish, calling out a trader
And like a sheperdless sheep I run and I weep
Three times denied
With the sting of a coward's lie
Your name, I'm stained with shame
I shake from the cold and the fear of heartbreak
The meaning of fish and bread that I swallowed?
Cold sweat covers me like a sickening stain
Tell me, what's the conclusion?
Thought I was strong but it seems I was wrong
Your name, I'm stained with shame
Now I see, since now I've
I'm hoping you'll explain this sooner or later
Three times denied
Thought I was strong but it seems I was wrong
But I failed to follow
Thought I was strong but it seems I was wrong
That would break your heart and make you moan
This wretchedness becomes my fame
My son do you love me?
Three times denied
Now I see, since now I've
Thought I was strong but it seems I was wrong
Now I see, since now I've
Your name, I'm stained with shame
Your name, I'm stained with shame
And I said three times, "You know that I do!"
You said three times
Nightmares run through my brain
My son do you love me?
Denied you never would be
The signed decree that declares you die
My son do you love me?
This wretchedness becomes my fame
You said three times
You said three times
Three times denied
This wretchedness becomes my fame
In this place between asleep and awake
Of all of us, it would never be me
Your accusation, it plagues my mind
Forsake your name, leave you alone
Three times denied
To scared to say, "I know"
Now I see, since now I've
Three times denied
Three times denied
And in the glow of the fire I turn into a liar
Three times denied
Your prophecy leaves me horrified
And I said three times, "You know that I do"
And I said three times, "You know that I do"
As I hear the cock crow
