The Man Who Would Be King
He is not there
He does not care
For he gave up a long time ago
Search low, search high
But you will not find
The God that you used to know
Liar, liar
Holy fire
Cry now as you might
Your friends have all gone
The grand plan undone
You stand alone tonight
You're too close to the sun
And you want to run
Yet you're tethered to the cause
You stand and fight
For what is right
To claim the forbidden rewards
You must do
What you have to
And pray that you'll be forgiven
For now just be strong
As the war rages on
To maintain the freedom in Heaven
