Verse
Heaven Cries Out
Jeremy Hurtt•
the best of our angels, tested and tried
Verse 1
What goes around must come aroundWhatsoever ye sow ye shall reapWhat goes up must come downYour daylight will shine through your sleepThe best of our angels are tested and triedThe quest of the blameless infested with prideA mess has been made of the risks and their costWe're blessed by the blind being lead by the lostHow shallow our purposeHow clever our aimsThe blast from the furnace shall bury our names
Chorus
Heaven cries out that they'll die for their liesBut they don'tThe father replies that we'll fly from their eyesBut we won'tThe coming is still on delayThe flooding is too far awayHeaven cries out that they'll die for their liesBut they don't
Verse 2
Giants once wandered this landWhatsoever they learned we've ignoredA fist overcomes open handsAnd to live is to die by the swordThe freight of the journey excuses the fareThe weight of whose earning defuses all careA slave has been made of the give and the takeThe full slate is starving and still they eat cakeHow shallow our purposeHow clever our aimsThe blast from the furnace shall bury our names
Chorus
Heaven cries out that they'll die for their liesBut they don'tThe father replies how we'll fly from their eyesWell, we won'tThe coming is still on delayThe flooding is too far awayHeaven cries out that they'll die for their liesBut they don't
Bridge
And I don't knowThat anythingWill ever make sense againIf there is silverIn this liningIt all will be buried with them
Chorus
Heaven cries out that they'll die for their liesBut they don'tThe father replies how we'll fly from their eyesWell, we won'tThe coming is still on delayThe flooding is too far awayHeaven cries out that they'll die for their liesBut they don't
