God For Rent Lyrics & Chords By Wellu Rowaltz

You crawled across the ice of my eyes
You fell into my dream and drowned in light
All night, you floated through my head
I heard your voice in all I said:
There's no way out
There's no way
No reprieve, no way to leave
Nowhere to turn
Gave it more than I could give,
And I know my smile was just a pearly cage I hid within
See the muses get old and retire
As my hopes had turned to wounds, I knew:
My god for rent, she resigned
Locked inside my painted shell,
I felt the jagged edge of my cell, myself
There's no way out
There's no way
No reprieve, no way to leave
Nowhere to turn
Gave it more than I could give,
And I know my smile was just a pearly cage I hid within
See the muses get old and retire
As my hopes had turned to wounds, I knew:
My god for rent, she resigned
News report (simultaneous):
Armed with nothing but a pen,
an unknown man stormed into the Church of Her Lady
in Waiting. He attacked the priest,
seriously wounding him and two altar boys.
Shortly after, the assailant came here to 323 Wellview
Avenue where he shot his wife and two children in cold blood.
Unseasonably cold/ Scorcher has ended/ decidedly cold
this evening as the temperature dips into the mid-teens/
mid-teens/ and the forecast for tonight is chilly chilly
chilly/ as we anticipate lots and lots of snow.
Gave it more than I could give,
And I know my smile was just a pearly cage I hid within
See the muses get old and retire
As my hopes had turned to wounds, I said:
My God,
There's less to me than you think
And I know my smile was just a pearly cage I hid within
See the muses get old and retire
As my hopes had turned to wounds, I knew:
My god for rent, she resigned.
