When the Mourning Stars Sang Together
Dark dismal cavern of pestilence and pain Writhe in marasmus, their skin hanging from bone Visions of horror The wrath of God invoked For the sin of knowledge An existence without hope Pestilence Tragedy Innocence Forever lost Endless Pain Misery Paradise For nevermore Promethean knowledge Usurping his domain Infernal power Man's freedom he regains Serpent of knowing Grant me thy hidden sight The forbidden secrets Forever I delight "Daemonic frenzy Moping melancholy Moon stricken madness And pining atrophy" *** Bereft of heaven And the holy light of God In sin I prosper Forever Eden rots Pestilence Tragedy Innocence Forever lost Endless Pain Misery Paradise For nevermore Fallen from Grace Gleaming brighter than a thousand stars In irreverence I stand tall Defiant In communion with the serpent

Wading through crimson pools of blood Drowning in sanguinary bliss Your tears are poison Running down your face The depth increasing Submerged inside your shame Ocean of sorrow So vast in endless reach Swallowed 'neath endless waves of pain Consumed in tortured Broken by vermillion tide Choking The blood it fills your lungs Drowning, you are forever drowning Struggling, you tread the heavy waves Crying, your tears they break the silence Dying, you are forever dying Ocean of sorrow So vast in endless reach Swallowed 'neath endless waves of pain Consumed in tortured Broken by vermillion tide Choking The blood it fills your lungs Mourning, no one to to mourn your loss Lonely, in solitude you pass You are forgotten Left in obscurity Forever knee deep in the vermillion tide Ocean of sorrow So vast in endless reach Swallowed 'neath endless waves of pain Consumed in tortured Broken by vermillion tide Choking The blood it fills your lungs

Sorrows upon sorrows Successions of ill fate Why me? Why must I suffer? Jehovah, I call out to thee Answer my plea in distress Show me the answers I seek Where were you when the mourning stars sang? "every night, and every morn. Some to misery are born. every morn, and every night some are born to sweet delight" *** Suffer under your grandeur Torture unto my lifespan Mourning my life of failure Witness the flaws of creation The ugliness of this realm Where were you when stars sang together?
