Theocracy - A Tower of Ashes

Behold the tower brick by brick we raise it upward to the sky

To reach the heights of heaven and beyond

With eyes of fire and burning pride our power cannot be denied

So God Himself can look at what we've done

Questioning my own intent and motive

Babel, are you really all that far away?

Sometimes I wonder what we'd do if the applause had died

And we found ourselves performing to

an empty hall upon an empty stage

The eyes of God, or the eyes of man?

No one can serve two masters in opposing masterplans

But we go our way

And keep climbing higher and higher

But farther to fall

And we build all our strongholds behind all our walls

But we stand on the threshold of losing it all

All the glory we crave

All the towers we raise

All the pride we build up to the sky

When the ity fades

The illusion gives way to a tower of ashes and lies

Still we seek to build our towers higher and higher

Sometimes when we think we're so high

the only way to go is down

When it is our pride that takes us higher and higher

We watch our towers crumble

and in helplessness we hit the ground

Higher and higher

But farther to fall

And we build all our strongholds behind all our walls

But we stand on the threshold of losing it all

All the glory we crave

All the towers we raise

All the pride we build up to the sky

When the ity fades

The illusion gives way to a tower of ashes and lies
