lyrics

Apocalyptic

What happened to our morals
What happened to our rights
Should we care, should we give up the fight

If I stood up
would they push me around
if I started the battle
would I be let down

Why can’t anyone see
Our destruction

Turn thine eyes to the sky
Blood red beginnings
Dragon’s wings
Lucifer’s army
A flash of light
Feathered wings take flight
Mangled bodies fall
The dead rise tall
Hitler reborn
The Reich’s attack
Living fight dead
Disciples rise
Blinding fury
Warheads launch
Bio-weapons burst
Flashes
Blood
Flesh

Silence
Broken bodies
Broken wings
Bright light
Pitch black
One last act of forgiveness
For the defeated
Then full light
Uncreation
Bodies from dust
To dust return
A single male body
From the dust of his
Descendants
A rib removed
Learned mistakes
No female entirely of dust
No forbidden trees
Dragons and unicorns roam
Caine and his army
Arise from the ashes
Not yet returned to life
A sorrowful plea
Past sins forgiven
Feathered wings and
Freedom granted
An old debt paid
A new beginning ready and begun.
