understand what power is
understand what glory is
understand at all,
understand at all.
If you knew all that I knew
my portions of them
you'd see the truth,
but you'd close your eyes..
but you'd close your eyes.
While you live your troubles are many
poor Jerusalem.
To conquer death you only have to die.
You only have to die.
Pilate: I dreamed I met a gallilean.
A most amazing man,
he had that look you very rarely find,
the haunting haunted kind.
I asked him to say what had happened,
how it all began.
I asked again, he never said a word.
As if...he hadn't heard.
And next the room was full of wild and angry men
they seemed to hate this man
they fell on him and then...disappeared again...
And then I saw thousands of millions
crying for this man.
And then I heard them mentioning my name
and leaving me the blame...
Chorus (quietly): Pilate...
