Minerva is the lead single from Deftone’s self-titled fourth studio album. The name comes from Minerva, the Roman Goddess of wisdom, war, art, schools, and commerce. She was the Etruscan counterpart to the Greek Athena.
Although the self-titled album is one of Deftones' heaviest, this song is more...
[Verse 1]
I get all numb
When she sings that "It's over"
Such a strange numb
And it brings my knees to the earth
[Chorus]
And God bless you all
For the song you sang us
[Verse 2]
You're the same numb
When you sing "It's over"
Such a strange numb
It could bring back peace to the Earth
[Chorus]
So God bless you all
For the song you sang us all
For the hearts you break
Every time you moan
[Bridge]
I get all numb
We're the same numb
And it brings our knees to the earth
[Chorus]
So God bless you all
For the song you sang us all
For the hearts you break
Every time you moan
[Outro]
And God bless you all
On the Earth
