Lucifer's Final Confession

Tears rain from the heavens
My decent is so steep
I feel so exhausted
I just couldn't sleep

I wanted to run
But no one would let me
Though I'm not blind
I just couldn't see

The higher you are
The further you fall
I was most high up
The most, I recall

I screamed all the way down
And pleaded for mercy
I am now below ground
For that's where I must be

I am Morgenstern, Lucifer
The devil himself
I wished to be more than this
Nothing less, nothing else

I asked for forgiveness
I rescinded my ways
But He just threw me out
There was nothing to say

Now I work through my minions
For here I must stay
I wait for forever
Or until my last day

I have lost all hope
There's nothing left now
As I sit on my throne
Made of naught but a vow

I might rest here forever
For there is nowhere to be
There's nothing I want more
Than for God to want me

I'll get rid of the darkness
For I see the light
I will destroy myself
And end this endless night
