Heaven Laid in Tears

Behold the skies They're full of lies in disguise Behold the skies They're full of lies in disguise O, Creator So long we have fallen to our knees So long we have murdered our honor While protecting Thine Behold the skies They're full of lies in disguise Behold the skies They're full of lies in disguise And we, warriors moulded in the blood of His vanity The silent, loyal shepard who tends my light Is dead in me So let the night take thee in her arms And dry these tears into her embrace It's the end of pretending and defending God's holy light El Shaddai, we serve Thee henceforth no more Show me heaven, show me guilt, embrace the pain We must suffer to realize We must despair again and again No longer our knees we shall bend No longer fold our frozen hands We long for the darkness, our flames still burn for mother night Behold us now, as we cry, soon to die to rise again Behold the skies They're full of lies in disguise Behold the skies They're full of lies hear our cries I have seen us bathing in blood to defend His very glory I have seen us kneel and praise for nothing I have seen Him dying in our eyes I have realized that God owes us His life
