Glass Kingdom

We are the lost
The orphaned
Outcast and abandoned
You turned your back on your so called children
Perched atop your throne
Can you hear them
Calling your name
Were you ever there
Were you even listening
You abandoned me
You abandoned all of us
The world is reaching for hope so untouchable
And I’d rather burn in hell
Forgotten martyred souls
Rotting behind your doors
And I’d rather burn in hell
Gone are the days where you put faith in our hands
How can you pray on the blind, the weak, the sick and diseased
You only seek
To prophet from those who broke their backs
To build your monuments
Your monuments
They’re singing
How can I trust in the branches
When the roots are all marred
How can I trust in the branches
When the roots are marred
You abandoned me
You abandoned all of us
My path unlit, I will find my way
You were never there
Never there to guide me anyway
The world is reaching for hope so untouchable
And I’d rather burn in hell
Forgotten martyred souls
Rotting behind your doors
And I’d rather burn in hell
