Lyrics Gods Will Be Gods - Echo & the Bunnymen

Gods Will Be Gods

How can you pretend
When there’s so much at stake
That it’s a different world
And your hands don’t shake?
At the end of the room
In front of the bar
We knew that soon
We’d be making our mark
(Mark my words)
Why do you defend
The part you have to take
With your fingers on the world
Hoping your hands don’t shake?
When you get the time
Why not think about
Connecting yours and mine
And turning in to out?
(Out of it and into it)
Back to the bar
I was feeling it
The hole in the floor
Was where I would sit
Positions will be lost
Things will fall in place
The falling will not stop
'Til we have found our face
(Let's face it, we’re in Heaven)
Oh, will you mention
Oh, will you mention
My name
To one
Oh, will you mention
My name
To me
Gods will be gods
But my one forgot
I was made out of skin
And bones will be bones
But when I came home
There was no one in
So where were you staying
While I was out praying?
Was nobody laying
The foundations?
The fulfilling
Of our killing
How can you pretend
That there’s so much at stake
When it’s a different world
And everything shakes?
Shake baby shake
Roll baby roll
Gonna hit the highest heights and
Never be told to
Roll baby roll
Shake baby shake
Gonna hit the highest heights and
Make a mistake
