Lost Requiem of Faith

And us victims who champion pride.

Its one that we all wish we had

One that we all wish we could erase

 

One that threatened even the gods

Or at least, humbled them to this earthly place

 

Like stones before the statue

Or like a chorus to the choir

 

Pieces,

Segments,

Fragments,

 

Parts of the whole.

 

Lightning falls from heaven,

But pain falls in man

 

Death is but a reaper

Of a living that is damned

 

We stand before the symphony

Praising for the chorus

 

Erupting in our misery,

Lashing at what's upon us.

 

So here we are

Take nothing back

 

What we've stolen

What we've earned

What we've done.

 

Among us,

Yes,

Life comes and goes.

 

But within us,

For those of us with pride,

Take everything we own -

But our fire never dies.

 

And in this requiem

In this honor

In this end

 

I'd give what I can

To do the same for a friend.
