Believing in trees and a blue sky is not a crime

This only poisons Renata’s mind
Doesn’t listen to a word I say

The price to pay is my life or run
I am quickly required to make my decision

If I run I’ll live to see another day
Where I can return to my wife and her life
The grief of her father won’t so heavily weigh
She might then listen to what I have to say

My daughter and life or my wife
I must restore my sight to true vision
The price to pay is my life or run
I am quickly required to make my decision

Decision

Rev. 3.1.14

Changed verse 2

Chorus:

My daughter and life or my wife

God, you restore my sight to true vision

The price to pay is my life or run

Your guidance required to make my decision

Verse 1

They are coming quickly to kill me

They will be glad to see me die

But believe might still get my Renata to see

Believing in trees and a blue sky is not a crime

chorus:

My daughter and life or my wife

God, you restore my sight to true vision

The price to pay is my life or run

Your guidance required to make my decision

Verse 2 :

There is no time

Agatha has already run away

This only poisons Renata’s mind

She won’t listen to a word that I say

Chorus:

My daughter and life or my wife

God, you restore my sight to true vision

The price to pay is my life or run

Your guidance required to make my decision

Verse 3:

Renata did not banish me to the upper hell

She is slowly being released from Cyril’s spell

For treason highest crime the Good Book does say

Banishment not hanging is the punishment if rebel

 

If I run I’ll live to see another day

Where I can return to my wife and her life

The grief of her father won’t so heavily weigh

She might later with proof listen to what I have to say

Chorus:

My daughter and life or my wife

God, you restore my sight to true vision

The price to pay is my life or run

Your guidance required to make my decision

 

God, I hear the answer to my petition

Given time, will be rid of Cyril’s apparition

Given time, time will heal the division

Must get to safety is Your decision

Chorus:

My daughter and life or my wife

God, you restore my sight to true vision

The price to pay is my life or run

Your guidance required to make my decision
