Lyrics: Se Wan Jeon
Music: Se Wan Jeon
East of the cities, so holy and bright
Stands a white city, bathed in the light
Where the ground never trembles in fright
And all of our prayers are heard in the night
Same street, that chrome-saint glow
Chalk-pale hymns rinse the cobbles below
Litanies drift, confessional murmurs low
White doctrine climbing every stone
Where did the usual thunder go?
Even our breathing marches slow
If peace won't breathe or cry tonight
I'll cough the sky with powder-sweet light
LEX AETERNA, GRATIA VIVA
If law is living, why does it silence lives?
UNA VOLUNTAS, UNA CORONA
One will, one ring, who chose to cut our tongues?
One prayer, one trigger, safety clicking off
Click, clack, deliver, let the silence cough
Boom, together, light the halos rough
My gospel's gunpowder, sweet and tough
VERUS DEO VOLENTE
Wires of empathy, silver, tight
All our pulses set to "right"
If sorrow's banned and smiles don't shake
Who gets held when people break?
KEEP YOUR SCRIPT OF SPOTLESS GRACE
GRIFT HAS EDGES, LOVE NEEDS SPACE
IF HALOS MEAN WE NEVER WEEP
Bless my tears, let faith run deep
One prayer, one trigger, heartbeat counting down
Flash, bang, deliver, let the truth resound
Sweet crust, hot lead, knock the idol down
If faith forgot to breathe, I'll teach it how
Gospel rock'n'roll
HIGH-VOLTAGE BARRAGE
If God wishes me to embrace death as an angel
Then I would rather be born as human
With all the ugliness, transience, and suffering that entails
Prayer never moved the mountain on command
IT MOVES MY FEET TO LIFT YOUR SHAKING HANDS
Not proof, not switch, not wishes coming true
IT'S CHOOSING YOU, AND BEING CHOSEN TOO
If hope is foolish, let me be that fool
A heart that bleeds is still a living proof
VITA CUM DOLORE NON EST PECCATUM
CARITAS VIVORUM NOS CONNECTIT
One prayer, one trigger, light the thunder's throat
BOOM, TOGETHER, WRITE A TRUER NOTE
If law is love, then love must choose devote
Cut the wire, hold my hand, keep hope
QUO MODO ANGELI LOQUUNTUR?
QUO MODO ANGELI CONNECTUNTUR?
QUO MODO ANGELI SUSTINENT?
QUO MODO ANGELI EXSISTUNT?
Quo modo angeli exsistunt?
QUO MODO ANGELIāā
