The Great Elector

Is it me, an emissary of the divine
Kneeling upon those who I named?
Watch me stand up and pray
'God, take my pain away'
I've seen many rise and fall
I've seen the world crumble from the inside
How its wretchedness devastates
the walls of our morality
What is religion? What is faith?
Our existence has had a purpose
to uncover the mysteries
that shroud the whole universe
Following a path in the sand
Learning how to morph with a wave
Becoming one with the stars

Upon staring to nothingness
I realize our wicked ways
The cross man worships nowadays
Is that one, that one of his own

The election's been cast
the choice has been made
and the world still doesn't understand

All their dreams are coming true
though they can't remember
How it feels to have a dream
And each day has become worse than the last
No more crowns to give
Or secrets to hide
Nights of October thinking in why we're all wrong
Beauty is now a shadow of our misconceptions
A story being lived by all of you
