Your Judas Kiss (stripped)

I’m relying on a wing and a prayer, though I don’t even have a faith
There’s a trust that feels much greater, feelings that couldn’t fade
Now it hit me so much harder, harder then I thought
When you laid in somebody else’s arms, and I did not
I live like a rolling stone, so they say I gather no moss
Now you’re happy with another, and I’m stuck here in the grass
How come we spoke so much about it, and everything that we did
And now we’re crying and we're shouting, so I only want to say this
I’m allowing you to kiss him, with the Judas kiss you’ve got
I know you don’t need my permission, but I don’t have a lot
And I don’t think that I can live with this, so I’ll just adjust the plot
This way I’m allowing you to kiss him, with the Judas kiss you’ve got
I won’t forget the times we were happy, but I lost myself in you
I hope you’ll never replace or resent me, or think you were just a fool
There’s an acceptance I can’t carry, for me it’s just too soon
And now I lay here weak and weary, this is what I decide to do
So I’m allowing you to kiss him, with the Judas kiss you’ve got
Because I just can’t keep on wishing, a leopard cannot change its spots
So I will just embrace the ending, so I can always love you a lot
And so you’ll be free to kiss him, with the Judas kiss you’ve got
It landed me so way too hard that you were in his arms tonight and that’s a thing that I can’t help
So I’ll free me from myself
Now I’m allowing you to kiss him, with the Judas kiss you’ve got
I know you don’t need my permission, but I just need a shot
A shot intended to kill the pain, maybe it’s just a train of thought
I hope he’s ready for you to kiss him, with the Judas kiss you’ve got
