“God’s Plan” is the only song from Love Is Dead to feature Martin Doherty on lead vocals. The staccato-induced, dark-toned tune tells of an obsessive man demanding love from his subject, both adamantly and figuratively.
[Verse]
You belong with me
I'm tracing a line
I'm tracing the lines of your hand
You collapse in threes
Show me inside
Wasted and wide like dead sand
You confide in me
Shamed and maligned
Shaped and defined by God's plan
You belong to me
You're crossing a line
You're cold and confined, you're no friend
[Chorus]
I wait for a sign
I'm tracing the lines of your hand
Of your hand
Of your hand
What's yours can be mine
I'm tracing the lines of your hand
Of your hand
Of your hand
[Outro]
You belong with me
And tonight, at least we can die in silence
Is it worth it now?
Tell me, is it worth it now?
Is it worth it now?
