Lyrics The Ascent and Decline - The Agony Scene

The Ascent and Decline

Dissent
Curse the light, let the darkness take hold
Condemned
Now the faithful will know that prayers go unanswered
The ascent becomes the decline
Corrupting the soundest of minds
Leaving the weakest to die
Forgone the path of salvation
You’ve carried their crosses
Bow to their God
The burden becomes ours
Bow to their God
Repent
Lest we burn as the embers below
Resist
Rain the fires from heaven
Reap what you’ve sewn
The blasphemous praise the divine
The dawning of human decline
Its rapture will leave us behind
To stray the path of salvation
You’ve carried their crosses
Bow to their God
The burden becomes ours
Bow to their God
These are the sounds of attrition
The dawning of human decline
These are the sounds of attrition
Its rapture will leave us behind
Its rapture will leave us behind
Condemned
Its rapture will leave us behind
Condemned
Its rapture will leave us behind
Condemned
Its rapture will leave us behind
Its rapture will leave us behind
Its rapture will leave us behind
Its rapture will leave us behind
Its rapture will leave us
