"God Is Waiting" lyrics

Matt Sweeney & Bonnie "Prince" Billy Lyrics

"God Is Waiting"

She's on a lone walk home, found herself
At the edge of all things
No more smiling through it
Just frowns that ghost towns bring
She wouldn't celebrate the joys of anyone
She's moved beyond, she's come undone

I asked her why she stopped
And wasn't moving through
She said 'cause God was waiting
So she was waiting too

Sun comes up and then goes down
Over and under her it arcs
Her teeth grow long, and breath, it slows
As endless time, she marks
The world is all behind her
She renounces and she rises
No rules for when she must go on
No endpoint tantalizes

I asked her why she stopped
And wasn't moving through
She said 'cause God was waiting
So she was waiting too

But I'm not waiting, no
Not waiting anymore
God can fuck Herself
And it does, hardcore
