Lyrics Playing God - Absolution Project

Playing God

Try to wash the sins away
And live to fight another day
All this time the entity’s been right in front of me So secure and yet indifferent, forcing your beliefs
While you act like you are holier than thou
Inside you know it’s more than I can allow
All the things I’ve sacrificed to show that I believe
You have deceived
Breathe deep and know you’re just a man
Who’s been playing god
Can you take these words away
And learn to mean the things you say
So much time that has been wasted on what you can’t be Reinforce your own delusion, you’re no deity
While you act like you are holier than thou
Inside you know it’s more than I can allow
All the things I’ve sacrificed to show that I believe
You have deceived
Breathe deep and know you’re just a man
Who’s been playing god
But you’re not a god
I’ve lost my faith in all the words you’ve preached
And common sense tells me the price I’d pay is just too steep
These memories are splinters in my mind
Because your divinity has only blossomed into fruit, dying on the vine
While you act like you are holier than thou
Inside you know it’s more than I can allow
All the things I’ve sacrificed to show that I believe
You have deceived
Breathe deep, and know you’re just a man
Who’s been playing god
But you’re not a god
