Zack Thurston - "Paradise Lost"
V. 1
Your fall from grace
leads you to question why.
You wonder why the race
ends where it begins.
One third expelled below,
led by the Angel of Light.
Dare to question Him,
He'll smite you in His wrath.
What kind of god is this,
who ends his own design?

Chorus
God, are you there, are you there, O My God?
God, do you care, do you care O My God?
Child, no one hears, no one hears you O my child.
Child, do not fear, do not fear, O my child.

V. II
O Serpent in the tree,
is knowledge now a sin?
to eat the proffered fruit,
which God himself placed here.
How can we have free will,
if God knows everything?
How can God know everything
when his best Angel turned away?
What kind of God is this,
who neglects his own design?

Chorus

V. III
We lie in our graves.
Is this now the end?
Will salvation come,
or is the Covenant a lie?
We ask ourselves these
all to no avail.
The end shall never come,
but through our own intent.
God has become
nothing but a myth.

Chorus
