God Is in the Rain Songtext
von Atlas : Empire

Save us
From ourselves
Empty words
From hollow lungs
Yet we still
Pray for
Salvation

I held on
For the hand that would surely come
Rip praise from my empty lungs
(Just hold on)
How ever absurd or hollow the words
I held on
Too long

Just


Save us
From ourselves
Empty lungs
Form hollow words
Something to
Pray for
Because

God is in the rain
We′re all in the gutter
Just staring
As the
Stars indifferent gaze
Provide the perfect cover
Preparing
For the end
In our hearts
We were right
When we were
Staring at the stars


If God is in the rain
And we're all in the gutter
Then what′s he trying to say
When he fills our lungs with water?
I was looking at the stars
Putting them in order
While choking on the choices
Of a mind that never bothered
To right when it capsized
Though I scream I'm going under
And the faithful hypnotised
Swear by God
It's such a wonder
While they′re counting out the tithes
And filling up their coffers
The stars all realign
I close my eyes
And my mind wanders
To every lover that remained
In my bed long past the morning
Asleep while my heart raced
At the prospect of belonging
Every friend that slipped away
Every promise that I made
Every heart I took and called my own
Then left without a warning
Cos God is in the rain
Now I′m headed for the aether
And I know I should be scared
But in truth it's a relief
Cos there′s nothing that awaits
For the souls of non-believers
This day was always coming
And I'm ready now to leave here

Carry me inside
Carry me inside
Carry me inside
Carry me inside
Carry me inside
Carry me inside
