Throes of Absolution
To what end will our foolish ways lead? Shall we be consumed by Your holy wrath and reap our deserved fate? O my God, come down in power, engulf this man in the cleansing winds of Your unceasing mercy Let adoration rise within me; liberate Your creation Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of His inheritance? He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in steadfast love He will tread our iniquities underfoot You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea, as You have sworn to our fathers from the days of old

Did you think it was fruit that brought the fall The deception of an outside hand The decision of a malevolent god This curse is not a curse This legacy of sin Is all just a reaction This bane of our humanity Is our humanity itself Blame the plague Fuel the detractors of the cure If this is a curse from a god Then what morality is there in worship This is us There is no sin There is only man We can only hurt We can only steal We can only cheat We can only kill (When there is no celestial provider) Forsaken a benevolent creator Reaping what we have truly earned We are not afflicted We are merely on our own There is no magic infecting your soul There is only what you have done We have hurt to survive We have lied to reach respite We are the consequences Of our human weakness And our damnation is our own

Growing tired of the void Sickened by the concept of relinquishing autonomy The path to enlightenment inclines Constantly, never giving way to respite There is no meadow of regeneration The is The Hill Difficulty This is the Mount of Worth There is no spiral path to the summit There is no other existential meaning greater than the view from the peak The higher I ascend, the more vague the foundation becomes The higher I ascend, the greater my view of the cities I left behind O' God of Obscurity, deliver me into brilliance Bathe me in the light of the outer-truth Give me the perception of the Saints and the Exorcists Carry me to the Summit of Infinity No voice from the heavens to reply No hand of the Host to seize me Only a whisper in the Gale Ambiguous, but so real ("The greatest struggle begets the greatest catharsis") Within the throes of absolution I shed my humanity I rise beyond angels to the company of Saints

Time and time again, I have tasted defeat The works of my hands disgrace Your name But yet I still depend on your feeble mind Overhead a dark cloud covers the sky Breeding this pain that will consume my life Pushing onward without You Stagnant cycle repeats Choke the air, kill the man Each step I take in Your name gives birth to a new life Every step alone brings pain tenfold Forgive me In Your perfect love, I am made complete Pour out Your mercy

At the foot of the hills, I strain to see what lies ahead My own hand blind my eyes My soul longs to scale this mountainside, but my body fails to continue Fearing this plague that I have born, I cower to hide form the light Back into the mire, crawling deep inside the dim embrace of my delusive savior The wolves of my addiction are unleashed Tear through my flesh and shatter my bones, this body is nothing Upon this mount strikes a mighty hand The heavens open up, into Your hands I am risen Pulled away, this poison is purged Though the enemy will scheme to bring eternal destruction, it is in Christ alone that I have been set free

Seeking something beyond the stars Irreverent to laws and restrictions I've seen the darkness I know it's there I don't care how it bends the light The point is that the light exists This light has a strange nature This light doesn't care what I think This light will carry me to the truth All I care about is knowing what that means You can call it God Call it an anomaly I don't know how it functions All I know is what I've seen I am not a teacher I am in nobody's crusade I am just a seeker Fighting in this war against obscurity And I'm not seeking a defense Some kind of apologetic ammunition I don't need the discourse of dogma against angst This is not a showcase of intellect or rebellion This is the battle for perception This is the struggle of knowing the truth This is what happens when I can no longer only trust myself Let alone put my faith in you

Save me, O God, for the water have come up to my neck I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me Fear and trembling have beset me, horror has overwhelmed me I am worn out calling for help, my throat is parched My heart is in anguish with me; the terrors of death assail me Many are my enemies without cause; those who seek to destroy me They sharpen their tongues like swords, and aim their words like deadly arrows When they draw the bow, let their arrows be blunted O Lord, how many are my foes! But You are a shield around me, O Lord; You bestow glory on me I cry aloud, and He answers me I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me

How can we justify this selfishness? Is it not us who continue to kiss His cheek? Don't shun responsibility and cast the blame upon others Spineless decisions are symptomatic of a greater infirmity Nation unified, now cursed and divided Blind hate bombards every side For the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night God has not destined for us wrath, but salvation Desolation fills the earth, these are the final days Prepare for the coming of the risen Lamb Die to yourself, renovate your heart
