I walked across the desert a thousand miles And every second cost to me a thousand lives And I close my eyes, and I pay the price When all of nature's beauties wore off and died You promised me the heavens will make it right And I closed my eyes and trusted your lies (My God is dead!) I catch you, my soul and my heart (My God is dead!) While you left us lost in the dark (My God is dead!) You played all our faith and I gave you my life (My God is dead!) You promised me heaven instead My God is dead I watch as all our loved ones return to dust The world we used to live in it drowns in rust But I close my eyes and turn to the skies With all the souls you gave us, with all those tears You didn't try and stop it in all those years You heard all those cries when you closed your eyes (My God is dead!) I catch you, my soul and my heart (My God is dead!) While you left us lost in the dark (My God is dead!) You played all our faith and I gave you my life (My God is dead!) You promised me heaven instead My God is dead My God is dead And soon there we be silence But I still vote to come But you will still remember Where we were only gone You'll hear my voice forever Reminding you of us Forsaken, betrayed in our trust (My God is dead!) I catch you, my soul and my heart (My God is dead!) While you left us lost in the dark (My God is dead!) You played all our faith and I gave you my life (My God is dead!) You promised me heaven instead My God is dead My God is dead My God is dead
