Rapture - King Goat

In our short span of time

Vacant and wandering

Your trust is misplaced

The soul of every being

Is far beyond redeeming

The end approaching faster

Than we can find an answer

In cloud, obscured and shrouded

And in the roots of mountains

Awaiting unexpected

The reckoning we all deserve

And remove the heart of the Earth stone by stone

And replace it with lives stolen away

Sepia shaded, the phantoms that reach from their graves

That you, in your pride, desecrated without paying heed

The lesson, unwanted, returns to the deep and is forgotten

Given to you, were far too many chances

Spurned and abused.

No more

There’s no hiding from the sun

There’s no pleading with the void

All of humankind undone

And every being on the Earth will suffer as one

Rapture

Chaos across the globe

Every prediction could not foretell it’s wrath

As the continents capsize into the flame

At long last, the planet is cleansed

You should all know by now

It could have been so much easier

So much easier on us all

The soul of every being

Is far beyond redeeming

The end approaching faster

Than we can find an answer

In cloud, obscured and shrouded

And in the roots of mountains

Awaiting unexpected

The reckoning we all deserve
