Fear Is Your God

Details

Description

I built my home in the shadow’s spine
Every window nailed shut from the inside
Blamed the night for stealing my light
When I was the one who burned the flame out

Every mirror I’ve smashed to dust
Showed the cracks already in my trust
I wear the crown of a hollow king
Afraid of the fire, so I never sing

Fear is your god…
Fear is your god…
Fear is your god…

You kneel to the chains that you made yourself
And curse the world for not breaking them
You worship the silence, the slow decay
And call it safety… but it’s just the grave

Hatred is the hymn
Isolation is the temple
You stand in the pews of your own mind
Praying for a storm
And cursing the rain when it comes

Let the fire eat the altar
Let the night unmake the throne
Bury the god you made from fear
And watch the garden grow…

You kneel to the chains that you made yourself
And curse the world for not breaking them
You worship the silence, the slow decay
And call it safety… but it’s just the grave

Fear is your god…
But not for long…
