Parable II Lyrics by Crusades

Parables

2012

Is not the night always closing in?
Is not the night always closing in?
God is dead and so remains
Is not the night always closing in?
Is not the night always closing in?
God is dead and so remains
The madman jumped into their midst
He pierced them with his eyes
'Whither is our God?' he cried
'We've killed him - you and I.'
Is not the night always closing in?
Is not the night always closing in?
God is dead and so remains
The madman, silent, looked again
They, silent, stared at him
He threw his lantern to the ground
It broke to pieces, flaming out
'It has not reached the ears of men.'
Lightning and thunder require, they require, they require
The light of stars requires, they require, they require
Deeds, though done, still require, they require, they require
Lightning and thunder require, they require, they require time
Gods, too, decompose
(Gods, too, decompose)
(Gods, too, decompose)
Gods, too, decompose
(Gods, too, decompose)
(Gods, too, decompose)
Gods, too, decompose
(Gods, too, decompose)
(Gods, too, decompose)
Gods, too, decompose
(Gods, too, decompose)
(Gods, too, decompose)
Gods, too, decompose
Is not the night always closing in?
