From the Psalms
Empty Towers
♪ Synced lyrics coming soon
Verse 1
In their towers of steel and glass
The fools proclaim "No God shall pass"
Their hearts are void, their deeds corrupt
A world of wisdom interrupted
Chorus
Where are the righteous?
(Where are they now?)
All have turned away somehow
Not one good soul remains to see
The emptiness consuming me
Verse 2
They feed upon the innocent
Like bread devoured without relent
No prayer escapes their hardened lips
As darkness tightens its cruel grip
Chorus
Where are the righteous?
(Where are they now?)
All have turned away somehow
Not one good soul remains to see
The emptiness consuming me
Verse 3
Terror strikes when none pursue
Their scattered bones tell nothing new
For God has broken those who siege
Against the ones who seek release
Bridge
Oh, when will salvation come?
When will justice finally dawn?
From sacred heights to streets below
Let freedom like a river flow
Chorus
Where are the righteous?
(Where are they now?)
All have turned away somehow
Not one good soul remains to see
The emptiness consuming me
Outro
The fools may say there is no God
But truth will break through iron rod
And those who watch from Zion's gate
Will rise before it's too late
