Godless Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And into the darkness
Did you feel I was divine?
'Cause I felt the power when I laid down at your side
And I felt the rhythm, I felt the fever in your mind
I couldn't save you, but at least I say I tried
[Pre-Chorus]
If your love was ever mine
It would stay with me tonight
I'm praying, praying
You can see it in my eyes
There's a rage that still reminds me
I'm waiting, waiting
[Chorus]
You don't believe in one divine
But can't you tell me you believe in mine?
'Cause you've been my god, my god
And when you're gone, I'm godless, I'm godless
You don't believe in love
But can't you say that you've been thinking of us?
'Cause you've been my god, my god
And when you're gone, I'm godless, I'm godless
[Verse 2]
I swallow my fable that I was not enough
But with my eyes closed, I'm still dancing in your love
And inside, I'm dreaming I'll be alone with you again
And I can still hold you like I held you in the end
[Chorus]
You don't believe in one divine
But can't you tell me you believe in mine?
'Cause you've been my god, my god
And when you're gone, I'm godless, I'm godless
You don't believe in love
But can't you say that you've been thinking of us? (Thinking of us)
'Cause you've been my god, my god
And when you're gone, I'm godless, I'm godless
[Pre-Chorus]
If your love was ever mine
It would stay with me tonight
I'm praying, praying
You can see it in my eyes
There's a rage that still reminds me
I'm waiting (I'm waiting), waiting (Waiting)
[Chorus]
You don't believe in one divine
But can't you tell me you believe in mine?
'Cause you've been my god, my god
And when you're gone, I'm godless, I'm godless
You don't believe in love
But can't you say that you've been thinking of us? (Thinking of us)
'Cause you've been my god, my god
And when you're gone, I'm godless, I'm godless

I dated someone during the Goddess era,” she begins. “We broke up. He’s amazing, but we had quite an intense relationship. I wrote about him on The Altar, hadn’t spoken to him in years. I know he heard it – I was super anxious about it, didn’t warn him, blah blah blah – all that stuff that probably...
