The Fall of Man

We cannot see through, senses have failed

Between brief moments of light, we are fully lost

Forsaken quest, no destination

Shadows consume our sight, how shall we persevere?

A lure that mirrors our mortal dismay

Promised atonement, an ending in ashes?

Left empty-handed, malicious deceit

One final stare into the face of adversity

The fall of man

Compelled

Forsaken profession of faith

Dividing light away from the darkness

Sanctimonious, venture of decay

Unforgiven in sickening open

Into the end, forwards maze of misery

Inhuman burden, endure everlasting pain

Procrastinating, journey into wastelands

Disincarnated, void of all feeling

Rapid decline, downwards maelstrom of despair

How inspiring is self-righteousness?

When we don’t even live under the same sun

Cursing prayers, renouncing belief

We won’t die in the name of the same truth

Behold the eternal descent

The fall of man

We cannot see through, senses have failed

Between brief moments of light, we are fully lost

Forsaken quest, no destination

Shadows consume our sight, how shall we persevere?

The fall of man

Compelled

Forsaken profession

Forsaken profession of faith
