Pride came
before the fall
first came pride
then came all
the darkness of
the night that would fall
then came flame
then came the wall
Pride came
before the tower fell
ascending to heaven
by digging in hell
and oh, look,
we're doing so well,
then burst the bubble,
then crush the shell
and all, is chaos, and confusion.
You'll be like gods,
You'll reach His height
You'll see as He see's
You'll have His sight,
You're beyond all question
You have the right
To celebrate,
What is evil,
And hidden in night,
But the morning comes,
with blinding sight,
The sun shall rise,
And flood with light
And the proud shall fall,
and rue their height,
and long,
and wait,
and hope in vain for flight,
