Two of my all-time favorite songs from one of my favorite bands. ZAO is fucking amazing. They're a Christ-Core band who's last album was called "The Funeral of God". It was a concept album, the premise is that what if God just became sickened by what man had become and decided to abandon mankind. Most christain stores won't carry it, even the ones that stock hardcore. The Rising End has some of my favorite lyrics ever written in a metal song.
Bombs rain down like heaven's tears
The earth shall die and disappear
And today, we wish the skies were grey
For now they're just black and empty
Ripped and torn from inside out
Things too dark to think about
No miracles, No bleeding hands
God has parted
Bombs rain down like heaven's tears
The earth shall die and disappear
And today, we wish the skies were grey
For now they're just black and empty
And when the end, she comes
Rains down on everyone, Fire from the sky
And when the end, she rides
Breathing out suicide, Life and death are one
As a flame burns to touch the sky
So it shall be with man's cry
And this night all will pass away
Bombs rain down like heaven's tears
The earth shall die and disappear
And today, we wish the skies were grey
For now they're just black and empty
Ripped and torn from inside out
Things too dark to think about
No miracles, No bleeding hands
God has parted
Bombs rain down like heaven's tears
The earth shall die and disappear
And today, we wish the skies were grey
For now they're just black and empty
And when the end, she comes
Rains down on everyone, Fire from the sky
And when the end, she rides
Breathing out suicide, Life and death are one
As a flame burns to touch the sky
So it shall be with man's cry
And this night all will pass away
