Rise and Fall stakes is high

I've seen the judas
I've seen him in the corner of my eye
Lying through his teeth
As rage consumes all I see
He'll trade his soul
In the blink of an eye
Is he alive behind those dead eyes?
I've seen the judas
I've seen a trail of lies and deceit
I've seen the malice clinging to a handful of dust
A golden crown for a severed head
This time it's your life
This time it's at stake
