Cowards of Heaven II : Prey Like Us

Pray like cowards
Feeble sheep existence
Hiding behind images
Cowards of heaven
Unholy inequality
A lonely creed
Of white lines

I see the sacred
Sullen depleted gods
Distant from earth's mourning
Empty of breath on heaven's shores
Watching inhumanity rain
Tears of vermilion
Staining the tide

Prey as Christians
Comfort adoring cowards
Hiding Behind bank draft miracles
Signature loans empowering pacifism
Awaiting signs to change
Until trauma like regret
Finds them

I see the sacred
Hollow God depleted
Separated from earthly sorrow
Inhumanity awaited signs too long
Adoring a debt destiny of feelings
On Sunday mass mourning
As the world slowly died

Praying to the sacred
Conscious sedation drug
Shepherd of hypnotic shadow
Dim twilight repetitive orchestra
Strange theatre of church
Why keep appeasing
These cowards...
Of heaven

Prey like karma
Allowing life theft
Dreams sexually trafficked
Motivated orphan children
Continuous intoxication
Numb to penetration
Stranger's throbbing
Unprotected thrusts
Devour vital signs

I saw the sacred
Paint my eyes blind
White hypocritical lines
Broken for a blessing
Another debt miracle
Oh manifest destiny
Stop appeasing
Cowards of...
Heaven
