Dead God

A sigh escapes the Earthly breast The wise God laid to final rest The sky holds but a candle's light Will we now see the morning's sight The wise God fell from heavens high Beneath a dark and weeping sky We're left to wonder, filled with dread Will dawn now rise for living dead Will blades of grass in springtime grow Will words of love in whispers flow Will we behold the summer's birth Or has renewal fled the Earth God left us at the fading light Consumed within a cosmic fight The angels hold their silent creed While mankind waits and watch God's bleed A bloody God's hand appears in gloom Engulfed in fire, sealing doom As Gabriel's form descends from grace The angels speak in this dead space "The Earth shall be your Master's grave The fleeting world He once forgave This land you held for borrowed time Is now reclaimed by the Divine"
