Текст песни
I saw them in my dream
With dust on their feet
They stood at the river
And washed their hands clean
You asked for a sign
I brought you the rain
But none of them came
When you called out their name
The gods do not live on earth
The gods do not live on earth
They watch from the edge of the hurt
The gods do not live on earth
So hold my hand
While the ground still burns
The gods do not live on earth
Your mother said pray
So you lit the small flame
The wax ran like tears
Down the side of the frame
You waited for thunder
For a door to swing wide
But all that came back
Was the wind outside
The gods do not live on earth
The gods do not live on earth
They watch from the edge of the hurt
The gods do not live on earth
So hold my hand
While the ground still burns
The gods do not live on earth
Maybe they left
When we learned to bleed
Maybe they speak
In the mouths of need
If heaven is far
Then I’ll stay here
With gun in my arm
And my fear
They move like shadows
Behind the gold
They keep their distance
They do what they’re told
The gods do not live on earth
The gods do not live on earth
They watch from the edge of the hurt
The gods do not live on earth
So hold my hand
While the ground still burns
The gods do not live on earth
The gods do not live on earth
They move like shadows
Behind the gold
They keep their distance
They do what they’re told
