The sound of cries and lament
Spiraling into this descent
Cauterizing wounds that won't mend
Is this the beginning of the end?

Can we be saved before it's too late?
Our lives in declivity
Watching our world fall apart
Into dismay

Emerge from the pain again
I swear this is not the end
This is not our requiem

Avowed to avenge and repent
Rain down, I brought punishment
No more will you suffer discontent

For you
I will not relent

Your sacred heart I will defend
And we will see new life again
This is not our requiem

Emerge from the pain again
I swear this is not the end
This is not our requiem

We emerge from the pain again
This is not our requiem
I swear this is not the end
This is not our requiem
