After The Fall

Anticipation of the consequences is killing our soul
Forfeiture of all we believe in will become our goal
Truth, Honor, Integrity and Justice are nil upon the table
Ever changing our destiny by leaving the scars of the label
Reaching nothing more than a false destination.

Thinking with closed minds and preconceived paradigms
Hinders our recovery from pestilence and hate crimes
Exchanging our free essence for one that is continually bound.

Fastened to the unrealistic knowledge that all will be forgiven
After the fall of the human race; we learn that absolution
Leads not to freedom from paying the reaper in full sum
Love is not for sale, nor may it be unraveled or undone.
