All Creation Wept

Ghosts On Pegasus Bridge
To the ocean we march.
We walk the darkest shore
In our thousands,
Beckoned by the call to arms.
This place is Armageddon.
The ground trembles, the skies still fire.
In an act of retribution,
I condemn you,
You spineless liar.
Oceans apart.
Your fate, now it weighs
As much as the world.
So as your act comes to close,
Your lungs, full of repent
Won't hold you afloat tonight.
The tide brings in
The remnants of empires
Torn down by the waves.
And I'm so tired of searching,
I'm just so tired of searching for this
Hope and forgiveness
You promised to me so long ago.
Keep your feet on the solid ground
Because you are so hollow.
Wash away, wash away
Your sins and your mistakes...
Upon the collapse
Of destiny incarnate,
Release yourself
Into your rapture.
Farewell dear city.
We embrace our final steps into the sea.
May the water heal our wounds
From the cleansing fires of light.
Welcome to your final curtain call,
I have been here so long, waiting...
