FEAR OF GOD LYRICS

1. All That Remains

Powerlines... steel webs confine, violating the brownish sky.
Hard grey smothers, earth, like cancer.
Cracks revealing, ground below broken and bleeding every seed every stone.

I know the feeling the loss of control
Voice of reason slips away
Eyes staring back at me
So dark, so cold
Reflecting all that remains

Who can tell the torture of the soul?
Is it wrong... you tell me is it wrong... to close your eyes... to sleep forever?

I know the feeling the loss of control
Voice of reason slips away
Eyes staring back at me
So dark, so cold
Reflecting all that remains

Can you hear me
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
Help me please

2. Betrayed

When the night comes
Run away
When the night fall calls out your name
The lust you feel
Has caused pain
Silent in the morning light
Go home to your betrayed.

When the night comes
Run and hide
When the night falls
Get inside
It belongs to the betrayed
Who can't decide
To live or die.
Something's on their minds...
It doesn't matter
They're just killing time.
I like the way the knife feels in your back.

Words fall
Between us
Lying in the dust, no trust
Their shadows cover us.
Recite this vow together
Swear on
Our souls forever
In nothing, in no one. Can we trust

Without mercy
Without pity
We silently stalk
The streets of the city looking for you
I am betrayed. You will feel my rage
You fucking goddamn king of the world.

3. Emily

Nocturnal shades of blue dance before her eyes
And call to me pleading please don't lie
In her darkest hour
Emily knows
The fate of whores
Who lie down
And swear the sacred words

Love was just something I did to survive
Love was just something I did to get by

Like a circus clown with her painted frown
Sun going down and the long night begins
Harvest
Where will you run to now?
You've betrayed all who cared
Harvest

Love was just something I did to survive
Love was just something I did to get by

It never changes
It goes round
And round
Round

You've got the need I got you suck me or you rot

Love was just something I did to survive
Love was just something I did to get by

4. Red To Grey

She calls out to you
From behind sin's doorway

Her 13 years have left her so calloused so diseased

Oh still she's begging you

Like you wish your daughter would
Half a word away
Betrayal fills her eyes

It's the sick of the unkind years
And scars start to form

A tangled web of shame

Across her bleeding, tortured flesh
And you want more

To take her down with you
Beneath the crimson tide
Slip... silently... under... the... water
(Remember no pain) Lost in the rapture
You're running fast from the past
But it's freeze framed... you can't see what's beyond
Her voice keeps echoing... your name... you keep remembering

The world so cold to you
You get what you gave
The world so cold it's true
When the red... turns... to... grey

When she's on her knees... she's saying a prayer for me
And through the frenzied feed... she's saying a prayer for me
And through the waiting tide offered sanctuary
I know she's saying a prayer for me
She just needed... someone to love her
She just needed a kind word

Crawling, calling across your memories
Torture you

5. Diseased

Cold wars... Genocide
Slavery of man
Third world poverty
Multimillionaires

Mass starvation
But don't be alarmed
That part of the population doesn't matter much anyway

Blood drunk like water
Now no more rain
No more victims for the altar
In the temple of decay

Watch the frightened refugee seeking sanctuary
His government want him dead
He has no choice

Blood drunk like water
Now no more rain
No more victims for the altar
In the temple of decay

Old woman in the gutter
Just barely alive
The crown turns…
Looks away
They never ask why

Blood drunk like water
Now no more rain
No more victims for the altar
In the temple of decay

Why are we deceased?

6. Wasted Time

Words can't say
The way I feel

Words can't save me

Faith has been broken
I'm no longer blind

Faith has been broken
Time after time

Harsh words are spoken
by those who deny
Harsh words are spoken

Lies always lies

He whispered "Be kind to me
Come kill me one more time
I'm lost in bitter rage"
Why, tell me why

Holding on to the pain
Holding on, watch life fade
Holding on the past
Holding on, to wasted time

I can't see through delusion
Oh I'm trying

Isn't life strange
When you're living a lie

Holding on to the pain
Holding on, watch life fade
Holding on the past
Holding on, to wasted time

7. Love's Death

Whispers in the darkness
Cold lies burn like fire
Page turn slowly
Fading the flame of desire
Unholy flame of desire

(You come crawling) down upon your knees
Liar
(You come crawling) begging baby please

Love's death is a slow death
Is a quick death
But once it's over
Fate's hand is a cold hand
Is a sly hand is the hand on your shoulder
But now you're older

You come crawling down upon your knees
Liar
You come crawling begging me baby please

You come crawling 'cause I got what you need
Liar
You come crawling begging me baby please

8. White Door

As you go down
Under the ocean
You reach out
For something
To believe
Doubt nothing

Be not deceived

9. Drift

Do you ever think about tomorrow?
Do you ever think about yesterday?
Do you ever feel sorrow?
Over what you've left drift away?

Lie alone rotting
Calling out for compassion
For a final act
They'll gladly pay
You know you're just another
Broken brother
Scared sister
No one will ever miss you
Anyway

Do you ever think about the other side?
And who's waiting for you there?
I'll be waiting for you dear
When they suck you in

Waiting for the door to be kicked in
Waiting for my head to hit the ground
Waiting for my heart to stop beating

Yesterday is dead and gone
Tomorrow is out of sight
It's so sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night

You're lost in the drift
That's what you want isn't it?

You're lost in the drift
That's fucking tough isn't it?

You're lost in the drift
You get what you gave yes
