Dave Van Detta - Requiem for Lucy Lyrics

A father blessed his child in the time dawn was born
She brought a light into his world, once dark hold
Then a song came from his mind, psychotic , wretched
She fell under her brother's shadow overarched

She saw in the newborn ones a shortcoming, their derail

So the sun that would rise has grown cold
His blunders sown
Then called our own
Now the lights and the cries have been shown
To call our own
To call our own

How father quickly
Formed another deception
We were too blind
To see the world through her eyes
And with his heart gone frozen she was soon sequestered
His mind had festered leading to a great demise

She exposed the potency of vise in her sibling's grace

So the sun that would rise has grown cold
His blunders sown
Then called our own
Now the lights and the cries have been shown
To call our own
To call our own

The light was fragile now with the canvas almost painted
With the colors of betrayal, innocence was lost
Now the fallen pay the cost
And the withered heavens tossed
The impartial before the gates
As light came dancing into Eden

A madman spurned his child
Once upon a creation
Her grave lament
Would soon be heard from above
An act that would mark the fall of reason
Confused with treason, a morning star eclipsed

Her love for us has grown
Hand in hand with death
So we fell with her
And for reasons unknown
We thought we were scorned
By Lucy
