The Lesser Lights Of Heaven

The lesser lights of heaven are burning towards a dream
The eyes of mothers bleeding
Cast their children to the sea

The lesser lights of heaven are screaming in our mind
Listen to the chorus
So divine and unkind

The lesser lights of heaven are burning for their Son
Praying for the presence
That birthed them into one

The lesser lights of heaven, their bodies but a flame
A sky that knows no distance
A cut that feels no pain

The lesser lights of heaven are bending towards your will
Cutting through the person
Who would rather die than kill

The lesser lights of heaven cast crowns before your throne
Dissipate into nothing
We truly are alone

Can we live through this? The lesser lights of heaven
