New God lyrics

I stood at the altar And worshiped a stranger Baptized in the water And absolved of my pain I thought you were holy I thought you could save me I gave you my future And you don’t know my name Guess this is the thanks that I get? You cast me out and you throw me away! Everything must come to an end! You’ve already died twice You can still be replaced We need a new God We need a saviour Maybe a new start Isn’t the worst idea We need a new God! A great entertainer We need an angel Or something that looks like it New God! Someone who can save us from the way we are We need a new start We’ll blame all of our problems on the old one New God Raise your boys to be sons And your girls to be daughters To walk in a straight line And do as they’re told Tell them they’re worth only as much as they’re making That no one will love them if they don’t fit the mold We need a new God! We need a saviour! Maybe a new start Isn’t the worst idea We need a new God! A great entertainer We need an angel Or something that looks like it New God! Someone who can save us from the way we are We need a new start We’ll blame all of our problems on the old one! New God!
