Questioning Heaven

FABLES OF THE ETERNAL WATCHER

I can hear their voices
A million souls crying out
In unison for attention
In truth full of doubt

Questioning Heaven
In a quest for answers

Prototypes of this age
Unfinished and unprepared
For the dark path that lies ahead
Separate pain shared

Those pleading voices
Singing with their praises

Erebus, Metztli
Here our voices
Summanus, Chandra
Here our calls!


Yes, I have the power
To answer all your prayers
From the religious zealots
To the sooth sayers

Leveling Heaven
In pure cleansing fires

Refuse to heed your call
You are nothing in eons
Past the flow in rivers of time
Lost pantheons

Those failing kingdoms
Screaming with their curses

Anubis, Hodr
Hear our curses
Chernobog, Setesh
Hear our calls!

Why have you forsaken us
In perpetual darkness,
When the shadows come calling
In perpetual madness?


I thrive on suffering
In endless woes of despair
Sacrifices made of warm blood
Is the price to bare

Savoring Heaven
Is earned with trials of hate

Primordial darkness
Woven in a sea of stars
Careless of the hearts of mortals
Since first tears were wrought

In lasting twilight
I watch with empty eyes
