"Old Gods" lyrics
The one God comes to drive out the many gods
Old rules, broken burnt down
See the smoke move
Cross here, through the burnt town
Choking, trying to get their words out
No not now, how?
Coping as the earth turns round
Hoping somehow that things turn 'round
Knowing damn well that things turned out
'Cause when words collide, old gods die
Or they just hide, put on a disguise
But just a couple generations down the line
People going to forget the translations to the signs
If the old gods living, now your soul can't find them
Imma hold my breath and imma close my eyes and open 'em wide
[?] was both you and I
No matter where you was at, look into the same skies
It don't get as true that, at the same time
Thousand miles apart, same frame of mind
Old gods, where have you gone
Old gods, there's still a few parts of you I see in our new God
Were you here before?
Is it true, God? I want to know more
Why can't we low boat
With the nose off that throw off
The scent skews how it really went
But I know the holiest temple of all
Is when I'm in the sun, feel the wind
Old gods, so far been gone so long, still I'm holding on
It's part of who we were
So in the end, you sing
Its part of who we are
Even if religious wish on a shooting star
Every gem in every king's crown on they head came from the ground
Excavated mine, polished or shine
Place to rest on the bald spot of the so-called divine
In the bliss, so-called civilized, in spite of the clench in [?] invent
While the bards wrote songs of the wars that they fought with dead men
Who fought til the death
They aren't mentioned in a single part that they said
Whose to know if the king really fought in the flesh
Or just sat on his horse in the back for the flex?
To add context for the [?] that we bred
Its fat, but is it really that in the end?
Old gods, where have you gone
Old gods, there's still a few parts of you I see in our new God
Were you here before?
Is it true, God? I want to know more
Why can't we low boat
With the nose off that throw off
The scent skews how it really went
But I know the holiest temple of all
Is when I'm in the sun, feel the wind
Old gods, so far been gone so long, still I'm holding on
It's part of who we were
So in the end, you sing
Its part of who we are
Old rules, broken burnt down
See the smoke move
Cross here, through the burnt town
Choking, trying to get their words out
No not now, how?
Coping as the earth turns round
Hoping somehow that things turn 'round
Knowing damn well that things turned out
'Cause when words collide, old gods die
Or they just hide, put on a disguise
But just a couple generations down the line
People going to forget the translations to the signs
If the old gods living, now your soul can't find them
Imma hold my breath and imma close my eyes and open 'em wide

No matter where you was at, look into the same skies
