"Too Late For Gods" lyrics

"Too Late For Gods"

Come with us to the water as we celebrate poolside
Silver-lined sons and daughters take the big dive
Celebrate before rejection
Before this pool shows our reflection too well
Diamond impressions lay where we fell
Without discretion

All the questions they'll ask:
Were we raised this way?
Such a promising past
Mayday

Go down in glory
What did I tell you
I promised they'd take me too
Down with the heroes before me
What did I tell you
I promised I'd give you a story

Tell me a story

Now look down from these great heights
Soaring pristine and private
Through the storm, we will cut right across the skyline
Celebrate, conjoin with this storm and radiate
We international wraiths
With hearts we've stolen
Flee but can't keep a thing that is golden

Go down in glory
What did I tell you
I promised they'd take me too
Down with the heroes before me
What did I tell you
I promised I'd give you a story

They say nothing was found when we hit the ground
Did I forget to say 'mayday'?

Go down in glory
What did I tell you
I promised they'd take me too
Down with the heroes before me
What did I tell you
I promised I'd give you a story
Go down in glory
What did I tell you
I promised they'd take me too
Down with the heroes before me
What did I tell you
I promised
