Pestilence & Rapture Lyrics - Singles - Across The Sun

Since the dawn of creation 

Mankind has been hexed 

Constantly torn by forces 

Beyond comprehension 

The endless struggle 

Of pestilence and rapture 

They will be heaven sent 

Or hellbound 

Each with equal intention 

Bribing the subconscious 

Waging war for control 

Manipulation their ambition 

From the womb we are mere targets 

For earthly free radicals 

Shifting shape as they see fit 

To compensate for no escape 

Steadfast with your convictions 

Seek out that which brings obliteration 

Utilize each with positive force 

A Taoist approach will mean harmony 

Now among the enlightened 

Rising above 

Regardless of the challenge 

Transitions with ease 

What once destroyed the spirit 

Is of no consequence 

Falling back to the point 

Of no return 

Deceivingly simple 

Focus, restrain the weakness 

You have found a higher power 

Pestilence and rapture 

Battles within us 

Seeking to destroy 

The choice must be made now
