Snog - Gods And Governments lyrics

We loathe the darkness that we're breathin' We fear the hole that we live in There's sadness sadder than can be spoken There's emptiness emptier than worth knowing We cry with a pain that won't show it's face A great sorrow that will never leave this place Pray, but don't except salvation The end holds nothing but deflation In fear we invent Gods and governments To hide we invent Gods and governments Behind lies a truth that's ugly and shallow Our lives are a journey confined and narrow We're born alone and we die alone There are heroes among us, but they're all unsung The landscape gives us the best indication That the light at the end of the tunnel, is a gateway to nothing
