Echoes (After the Fall)

How art thou lost
 O Fairest of creation
 Of all his works
 Worst betrayed
 And condemned
 O how it all refracts you
 Light itself would
 Cease without thee
 To exist in all of us
 All hail the offspring of Dawn
 Lies to unfold
 Led to her wreckoning
 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!
 Lies to unfold
 Led to her wreckoning
 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
 Behold
 Our sins are reckoning
 Deprived of sight
 To uphold the codex
 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
