The new life reborn Knows its misery Common sense would mourn This loss of such history
As a life lived in pain There are questions that strain A thousand cuts into our morality Are the price of approaching immortality
Like pawns on chessboard games We are played out in the names Of a god that burns our souls like fire As Heaven and Hell come to conspire
Against the heretics who rage Turning page after page Favors and threats keep in play All that madmen dread to say
God is God as man is man Each doing as it is that he can The ghouls who speak teach us all The bitter lessons that cannot forestall
The painful truth that we regret All the torrid moments that we cannot forget We cry out in anguish and sorrow Lifting up our hands in our prayers for tomorrow
