Song lyrics

Pride you took
Pride you feel
Pride that you felt
When you'd kneel

Not the word
Not the love
Not what you thought
From above

It feeds
It grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit
Deceive
Decide just what you believe

I see faith in your eyes
Never your hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

Find your peace
Find your say
Find the smooth road
In your way

Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold
And him in grave

It feeds
It grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit
Deceive
Decide just what you believe

I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

I see faith in your eyes
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

Pride you took
Pride you feel
Pride that you felt
When you'd kneel

Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold
And him in grave

I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by deepened nail
Follow the god that failed







The God That Failed

Pride you took
Pride you feel
Pride that you felt
When you'd kneel

Not the word
Not the love
Not what you thought
From above

It feeds
It grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit
Deceive
Decide just what you believe

I see faith in your eyes
Never your hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

Find your peace
Find your say
Find the smooth road
In your way

Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold
And him in grave

It feeds
It grows
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit
Deceive
Decide just what you believe

I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

I see faith in your eyes
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

Pride you took
Pride you feel
Pride that you felt
When you'd kneel

Trust you gave
A child to save
Left you cold
And him in grave

I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by deepened nail
Follow the god that failed


The God That Failed

Pride you took,
pride you feel
Pride that you felt
when you'd kneel
Not the word, not the love
Not what you thought from above
It feeds (It feeds), it grows (It grows)
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit, deceive
Decide just what you believe

I see faith in your eyes
Never your hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand
held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

Find your peace,
find your say
Find the smooth road in your way
Trust you gave, a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
It feeds (It feeds), it grows (It grows)
It clouds all that you will know
Deceit, deceive
Decide just what you believe

I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand
held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

I see faith in your eyes
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand
held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed

Pride you took, pride you feel
Pride that you felt
when you'd kneel
Trust you gave, a child to save
Left you cold and him in grave
I see faith in your eyes
Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand
held back by deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
Follow the god that failed
Broken is the promise,
betrayal, betrayal
