Lyrics God Rest My Soul - Dawes

God Rest My Soul

Take a last look around
Take the fall that is due
Hey, take your time, and I’ll take mine
It’s the last thing that is left for us to do
You have tried to define romance
And all the things that it is not
Your time became some old man’s cane
While he dances to a song that he forgot
Oh you can’t throw something out there without watching it fall
Only thing that’s scarier than dying is not dying at all
So when I have lost all my control
God will rest my soul
I guess your mind can leave your heart
I guess that’s what you’re doing now
But it doesn’t make us friends, or better men
It is not something that love would allow
Oh you can’t throw something out there without watching it fall
Only thing that’s scarier than dying is not dying at all
So when I have lost all my control
God will rest my soul
And just like how I’ll drink myself through my seventh relapse
Like the captain of a sinking ship clutches to his maps
What the figure on the cross thinks with his one final gasp
This too shall pass
Oh you can’t throw something out there without watching it fall
Only thing that’s scarier than dying is not dying at all
So when I have lost all my control
God will rest my soul
