lyrics

Everything that’s up is looking down
Upon me, the fallen angel, cursed unto the ground
For stealing the crown
God sent His justice, now I wait to drown

The jealousy inside me burnt worse
Than the gaping mouth of Hell or any of Dante’s verse
As a snake, I coerced
Joy into darkness; let sin run its course

These demons, they haunt more than just you,
But even me, their keeper, locked within this tomb
Of a world set askew:
The ghosts of angel brothers now haunting empty pews

I helped nail your Savior on that cross,
Craving the final word, simply put me at a greater loss
I once read that Christ learned the cost;
Obedience through suffering--but hell, I could never bear the loss

And I love you like the crown I cannot keep;
Like the kingdom I’m locked out from, which brings me to weep
And bitterly gnash my teeth
Now sackcloth and ashes, praying for some relief.
