Lament of the Fallen

Father I stare into a sackcloth sky
And watch this moon drip tears of blood
And father
My battered body cries
For the grievance
Of a thousand tortured souls

My lord my God
I've failed thee
Yet my disciples and I did try
And within the bounds
Of this most sacred ground
It is here we all shall die

The ageless goddess that is my soul
Helps me pierce this veil of lies
I transcend above And watch below
As My body burns and dies

Flesh cremate
My soul escape
I ignite in effigy
Merge into collective thought
Matter becomes energy

I am the grand architect
Of this universe
I lead you through this
Weft and weave and
Filaments You now traverse

There is truth in what they say
But truth is veiled in lie
These deities deception
Has caused this world to die

I am the grand architect
A new son must soon rise
Your energy turns back to matter
As the phoenix you'll arise

Are you so narrow minded
That you cannot forsee the truth
That these pains of war
Shall be lessened
By your enemy's
Unborn youth

So I gaze into
These lifeless holes
That once were called
Your eyes
And breath this breath of life back in thee
So you may once again arise
