|
i am not god, but i am closer than you |
|
to devildom and martyrdom, to a fraction of truth |
|
i am not fallen, but my wings are detached |
|
like lucifer, like seraphim i will come back |
|
i am not jesus; i am mary just like you |
|
in tyranny, and misery, i'm a victim of you |
|
i am not satan; he is my brother to be |
|
in liberty and treachery, and all that you see |
|
from the ashes where we fall, we shall rise again |
|
the great kings have fallen, but we find ourselves again |
|
the apples are eaten, but the moonshine still remains |
|
we are the flaming roses, in the new jerusalem |
