Act of God

I believe that we've

deceived our sons -

they feel betrayed

how can we repent

to save ourselves

and face the day

rise up above the ash

do you see the wrath?

can you feel the reign?

lie on a bed of nails.

paying for your sins.

can you take the pain?

act of god

is what we'll bring

the war's on us

when everything's all said and done

in the end we try to mend

the scars we left behind

pay the toll to sell

the soul and strip

and search the mind

burn weaker than before.

we cannot ignore

a blessing in the skies.

the dark before the dawn

cast upon the earth

plans for our demise

act of god

is what we'll bring

the war's on us

when everything's all said and done
