Echoes (After The Fall)

How art thou lost O Fairest of creation Of all his works Worst betrayed And condemned How it all refracts you The light itself would Cease without thee To exist in all of us All hail the offspring of Dawn Lies to unfold Led to her reckoning Cursed we were As they knew above Chained spirits writhe On the soiled path Led to the gates Of a world below Light up the sky Free of his lie Savor these dreams And await the fallen Rise to unfold This world to behold The end that is at hand Even the stars weren't meant to last Past the gates we've met Like reflections Yet incomplete Amidst the bravest of the sky Far from the sight of god Though his rule we threatened Thou doth know A soft tongue breaketh the bone The time has come Awake, arise or be forever fallen! Light up the sky Free of his lie Savor these dreams And await the fallen Rise to unfold This world to behold The end that is at hand Even the stars weren't meant to last Behold Our sins are reckoning Deprived of sight To uphold the codex O Lead us through temptation And deliver us from deceit Ave Breached are the gates of gold Now witness Cherub and Seraph rolling in blood The lamb is slaughtered, god dethroned Such a place eternal justice prepared Where peace and rest can never dwell A paradise lost And free will obtained That glory never shall his wrath or might Extort from me Salvation! To the one who sits Upon the throne Thou silence the Lamb Here we chant Non Serviam We transfix the host of stars Light up the sky Free of his lie Savor these dreams And await the fallen Rise to unfold This world to behold The end that is at hand Even the stars weren't meant to last
