Cast from Heaven's Gates Lyrics


At the throne of God

Prostrated feeble form, mercy denied

Sword clenched in baleful hands,

Execution nigh

He watches now as feathers fall

Cast out in excess

From Heaven; Scorned

His golden calamus picks flesh from bloody teeth

The marbled angel’s form...

Torn open piece by piece

Witness the feeble weep of deities deceased

The black blood of the Father

Seraphs slain and slaughtered

Black veins interlaced on ivory skin: a waste

A wrath so beautiful

Can’t look away

Scraping divinity from the frail trinity

Shards of light torn from bone

God won’t come

Christ dethroned

Cast from Heaven’s Gates
