|
Into the night Desperate and broken The sound of a fight Father has spoken The struggle of man's inner darkness combating the goodness suppressed in man's heart. This can also be seen as the nurturing voice of God. We were the Kings and Queens of promise We were the victims of ourselves Maybe the Children of a Lesser God Between Heaven and Hell Heaven and Hell Long before the onset of our hedonistic intentions and selfish interests before ourselves, we were the future all the rest of us depended on. But we became the victims of our own ambitious and selfish desires and dreams that didn't contribute to the weak, the broken, and the damned. We would idolize things of materialistic value. We contributed to a weaker greatness and let what matters become forgotten or condemned. A neutral people we've become, neither our dark totality or our most virtuous. Into your lives Hopeless and Taken We stole our new lives Through blood and pain In defense of our dreams In defense of our dreams We justified our designs and convictions through the sacrifice of others, weaker than ourselves. We took and took and never returned to those who could give their all only to be unrewarded and become lost to the mercy of humanity. We were the Kings and Queens of promise We were the Phantoms of ourselves Maybe the Children of a Lesser God Between Heaven and Hell Heaven and Hell (Repeated verse) The age of man is over A darkness comes and all These lessons that we learned here Have only just begun Our way of life as we know it shall come to pass and end at our own hands. We are an immature children that must learn from our mistakes. We've only began to understand ourselves and our world. The end is essentially only the beginning as we take on new lessons from our mistakes. We were the Kings and Queens of promise We were the victims of ourselves Maybe the Children of a Lesser God Between Heaven and Hell (Repeated verse) We are the Kings We are the Queens We are the Kings We are the Queens A sublime reminder of who we are and who we can still live up to be. The kings and queens of our destiny, our future. Will we take this message with our hearts and work together to achieve our dreams, or better mankind? Which is right or wrong now? |
