Songtext von The Face Of God

I saw the face of God And it was weeping The spirit of man Fitfully sleeping To imagine what's true With images With cutting nightmares Cringing while sleeping In wreckage Slithering By sea, come forth Through dark ocean eyes And rivers' flooding out Petrified and dreaming Encircling the grace And the face of God Is drowned by weeping His blood now ebon Dripping I saw the fate of man And I was screaming I saw the face of God It was weeping This bewildered gaze With a futile plight Of some glorious Sun Never to rise again Confusion, come forth! Be my epitaph! With each day of creation Walking backwards Into the ruins of cold light And divine providence God Into absolution: Void! You're flooding this tear-carved trail By mindless rumination It's something you've always done A supernova, there Stillborn, here Pay heed, dearest friend! I won't drag you down Into darker waters (Into darker waters) I promise This cavern's like a veil Of a life thwarted and foiled Unrealized in my sobriety And you would Cross oceans of anxiety And bleed generously To set me free Murdering your dread Life is for the living So don't waste it on me For I saw the face of God And it was weeping
