The sound of cries and lament Spiraling into this descent Cauterizing wounds that won't mend Is this the beginning of the end? Can we be saved before it's too late? Our lives in declivity Watching our world fall apart Into dismay Emerge from the pain again I swear this is not the end This is not our requiem Avowed to avenge and repent Rain down, I brought punishment No more will you suffer discontent For you I will not relent Your sacred heart I will defend And we will see new life again This is not our requiem Emerge from the pain again I swear this is not the end This is not our requiem We emerge from the pain again This is not our requiem I swear this is not the end This is not our requiem
