Songtext Name your god Emery

Name your god

Feel that fire beneath my toes
The world is burning all aglow
We missed the pardon, Heaven knows
Here for forever as human ghosts
We knew the stakes so take your place
I can't believe there's so much confusion on your face

So breathe in
(Let it out)
Through these charred lungs
(And breathe in)
To the end
(But the end was a casualty)

One time the old man said
Keep God in your heart, not your head
Don't ever let that end
(Don't ever let that end)
Because then you will see
(Name your God)
That I will not be here
(Name your God)
I will be at home
(Name your God and follow)
Will you be there with me?
I don't know

I'll take your mercy
Please take this pain
You did it once
This is just a misunderstanding
A little lie crept in my brain
I couldn't fight it so flesh becomes flame

One time the old man said
Keep God in your heart not your head
Don't ever let that in
(Don't ever let that in)
Because then you will see
(Name your god)
That I will not be here
(Name your god)
I will be at home
(Name your god and follow)
Will you be there with me?
I don't know

I awoke so scared, more scared than I had ever been
Asking God to forgive each and every sin
Sweat poured from my head into my hands
As I sat there staring at them
Seven years and death at your door
The spirit's in the room begging for more
And thirty-five years, I still don't know
I still don't know where we all will go
Where will you go?
I don't know
