Karaoke Track: Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say) by Musical (Jesus Christ Superstar) (Pocket Songs) - Karaoke Nerds

I only want to say,

If there is a way,

Take this cup

away from me.
For I don't want to
taste its poison,

Feel it burn me.

I have changed.

I'm not as sure
as when we started.

Then, I was inspired

Now, I'm sad and tired

Listen, surely
I've exceeded
expectations,

Tried for three years

seems like thirty.
Could you ask as much

from any other man?

But if I die,
See the saga through

and do the
things you ask of me,

Let them hate me

hit me, hurt me

nail me to their tree.

I'd wanna know
I'd wanna know, My God,

I'd wanna know
I'd wanna know, My God

I'd wanna see
I'd wanna see, My God,
I'd wanna see,

I'd wanna see, My God

Why I should die.
Would I be more noticed

that I ever was before?

I'd have to know
I'd have to know my Lord,
I'd have to know

I'd have to know, my Lord

I'd have to see
I'd have to see, my Lord,
I'd have to see

I'd have to see, my Lord

lfl die
what will be my reward?
If I die

what will be my reward

I'd have to know
I'd have to know, my Lord
I'd have to know

I'd have to know, my Lord

Why should I die?
Why should I die?

Can you show me now

that I would not be killed in vain?

Show me just a little

of your omnipresent brain.

Show me there's a reason

for you wanting me to die

You're far to keen
and where and how

and not so hot on why.

Alright I'll die!
Just watch me die!

See how I die!
See how I die!

Then, lwas inspired

Now, I'm sad and tired.
After all, I've tried
for three years

seems like ninety.
Why then am I

scared to finish
what I've started...

What you started
I didn't start it!

God, thy will is hard,
But you hold every card.

I will drink your cup of poison.

Nail me to the

cross and break me.

Bleed me, Beat me,
Kill me, Take me now,

before I change my mind.
