Stench Of High Heaven

<br>Father in Heaven, a desolate kingdom<br>His paradise, his promise, a faded flame extinguished by the dark<br>Lifetimes of devotion...eternities of nothing<br>The place for which you long, eludes and embitters<br><br>In the hands of fools and liars...trade your lives for grace<br>Your souls are weak and empty, now kiss his throne of sorrow<br>From crooked tongues...takes of pristine glory<br><br>Consumed by flames it burns, the fall of the holy kingdom<br><br>So high...<br>Absurd...<br>Sickening...is the stench of high heaven<br><br>Through the clouds<br>Through the lies<br>You`ll never see what`s never been<br>At the passing of life and the coming of death<br>Pass not through it`s gates, but into the dark<br><br>No light...<br>No love...<br>No glory...<br>No heaven...<br><br>Fallen has the king...fallen has the kingdom<br>Fall into uplifted arms below<br>The stench of heaven...lingers above<br>Sour is the air<br>But soon the air will clear
