lyrics

"This case is now within our jurisdiction.
Alone the angel can't refuse to fly.
The devil's verdict has been overruled
by the divine to protect his divine.
We need to reach a friendly compromise.
Either way, it's time to hand him over.
You can't afford another war with the heavens.
We know you're up to something,
just give us the boy."

Above and beyond the stars,
there is a little girl who is waiting for her
father to return to her somehow.
Little does she know daddy's
burning, yes, he's burning far below.

The devil works in mysterious ways; this could be another trick, another form of my torture. I must admit,
the very thought of her broken wings brings
more pain than hell could ever conjure.

Must I accept her fate?
There's nothing left of me.
Heaven would not permit
one of our own to wither
our beloved must not suffer for the
sins of the damned.
She needs a miracle,
let's deliver what's deserved,
let's bring her peace.

The devil knows that resistance would be quite unwise,
he understands this boy has a purpose.
To give him up would bring him much indignation, I'm sure.
Fear not, our strength comes from the almighty.

He seeks to destroy all creation;
the Earth shall not suffer his flames.
Heaven remains unscathed, and
everything beneath will crumble.

Must I accept her fate?
There's nothing left of me,
she'll never fly.

As the ground beneath us trembles,
and the oceans absorb the skies.
The very air you breathe a poison.
They will unravel their disguise.
Now concealed beyond the curtains,
they shape the plagues to come.
Brace the locusts and leprosy fatal,
witness this terror eclipse the sun.

As your shackles turn to sand,
a distant light shall flicker.
Follow swiftly, take no notice to the pain.
You must push on.
Through caverns deep you'll journey,
towards the end you'll find the light glows brighter.

Hope: you thought a child's notion.
And God: just someone to blame.
There is a chance, you see,
to rectify this tragedy.
Believe, you must believe.

My everything above,
if I could only hold you.

We fly tonight for mankind -
when the hell mouths open,
will you face the fires?
Waste not your time on mercy,
for surely mercy you will not receive.
(Fly, fight)
The demons shall not shake you,
let the blessed prove our strength
against the damned.
(Fly, fight)
We fly tonight for virtue,
black blood shall stain our wings,
we will prevail.

This is only just the beginning.
