letra de shadetree - potmos hetoimos

behold this city, wrought by human hands
forty days and it should all be gone
against all justice, nineveh stands
a blemish on the face of a vengeful god
this truth has burned my soul since the coming of his word
that repentance would preclude his holy plan
my fury swells at comp-ssion so absurd
i reject this grace, prophecy be d-mned

i went my own way (carve my path out of the night)
fleeing on the waves (occultation from your sight)
driven back, your storm took hold of me
i could not escape
hopelessness i gave (countdown to catastrophe)
to a city depraved (paradigm iniquity)
terrified, they turned their backs on me
crying to be saved
execution stayed (contrition annulling wrath)
by this mockery of faith (circ-mvented aftermath)
why should you defile your character
with this act of grace?
i won’t be your slave (power and pity at your whim)
i am not afraid (slay me now instead of them)
let your blazing light fall down on me
i’ll dwell in the shade

wretched man, is it your place to twitch and writhe in anger?
who made you the arbiter of d-mnation and mercy?
ever hope remains for those who abdicate their evil
condemnation falls upon what is, but not what must be
shade you tended not became delight until abated
raging at the loss of this ephemeral provision
i have watched the rise and fall of all i have created
how your heart would burst were it reopened to this vision
