This God Is Dead Songtext
von Seven Spires

Blindly
Across the sea
Your love (Your love, your love, your love)
Lit my way through storm and shade
For a thousand years
Today, and every day
Let me be your light
Let me be your light
Always

Another battle, another day
To face the light and pull away from the embrace
Of the shadows where I survived
The agony reminds me I′m alive

Oh mother, I wonder if you knew
Oh father, if only I could speak with you

Did you love my smoke and mirrors?
That would be enough, that would be enough


I know you found it, that dream you chased
Don't ever think that what you love is a mistake
Despite the demons that rule your mind
Stay the course, everything will be alright
Your mother, she watches over you
My daughter, just know that we are proud of you

From the beyond, you′ll never hear us
But you have our love
You have our love

Can't afford to die, and can't afford to lose
Sweet angel, wish I had been enough for you

All I am is smoke and mirrors
Would you love me if you knew?
Could you love me if you knew?

What happened to me?
I never saw these bones
I wear this skin like someone else′s clothes (Oh)
These scraps of childhood scenes are rough (Roughly sewn)
There′s no tomorrow
Just a day that started lifetimes ago

Back and forth
Mania and nothing
Nothing at all


Back and forth
Mania and nothing
Nothing at all

What happened to me?
Who am I? (Who am I?)
Everything I've been feels like it′s a lie
Food makes me sick and drink makes me fade
Are these my memories?
Am I even awake?

Back and forth
Mania and nothing
Nothing at all

Back and forth
Mania and nothing
Nothing at all

Earth, give me strength
Skies, lend your range
(Bow before the majesty, this loathsome demon reborn)
Moon, lend your light
(Life with new purpose, see the earth through young eyes)
Stars, guide my way
(Feel the universe through an ancient soul)

I have known all and nothing
I have stared into the void until it haunted my dreams
Screamed and smiled beneath the morning star
And conducted the chorus of grim constellations
Their lights lied, I died a thousand times
Floating frozen past their majesties
I wandered too far into the black

Non est otium
Tibi putesce mari aeterno
Abhorremus te

Non est otium
Tibi putesce mari aeterno
Abhorremus te

Endless nights awake in vain
My imploding brain
Torturing my psyche, there was no escaping myself
My failures, my hatred, my losses, my loathing
There was no hollow peace
This has been my final death
Finally accept
All that I am, and all that I'm meant to be
Perhaps eternally

Non est otium
Tibi putesce mari aeterno
Abhorremus te

Blindly, across the sea (Your love)
Lit your way through storm and shade
For a thousand years

Today
And every day
I will be your light
Let me be your light
Always

Guide of the lost
Guardian of the broken
Bringer of peace in final hours
Happiness is a choice
And purpose, a charted course
I am but a soul-keeper
And this god is dead
