Secrets of the American Gods

Lyrics

[Intro] (Keep faith, keep faith, in awe and wonder) Great Lord, your love's divine I spread your grace I share your light [Verse 1] For the shores of Hell were burning In purgatory's smell Went a preacher with a crucifix Brought mayhem and despair So here comes a new god, be brave A God-spelled illusion, a breeding of sin, I'll carry life Come share the disgrace, come share our pain Somehow we're not one Yet, somehow we're thе same Now strong in bloom, it shall begin Soon forgotten withеring [Pre-Chorus 1] Hail, nice to meet you Another numen stranger I'm so glad you have made it Somehow you've made it Welcome to the promised land [Chorus 1] There are no sights There are no miracles (Shadows bear no names) You should not reveal (Join the American Gods) The secrets of the American Gods Transform to infinity (No one cares for names) You can't escape, better hide now The secrets of the American Gods [Verse 2] So, when I look upon These fields of misery Who would not sacrifice a son? My son, it's now done We share our tricks, we share our foes Discorded plans, distorted tunes His dripping blood feeds It's what this land needs Life's creeping back into, back into [Pre-Chorus 2] Sadly to say, but Oh, there is no guidance But so bright, you're blazing starlight And we are watching you, watching you Stranger in a newborn land [Chorus 2] Of homeless Gods And worn out miracles (On these fields of crows) You should not reveal (Join the American Gods) The secrets of the American Gods Transform to infinity (No one cares for names) You better bow down, praise the new lords The secrets of the American Gods [Bridge] Take a look at yourself Oh, behold, here's another trick But now enlight our path in glory It is time to close your eyes, I shall live Almost insubstantial Resurrect, these moments gone Contemplate desire An eternal flame's burning down Don't be scared, follow the plan On a lifeless tree, black bird's singing Behold your father of violence The one-eyed god [Pre-Chorus 3] It's sad, I thought you'd know that The greatest liar is telling you eternal truth I thought you'd know that I'm your master, stranger in an unknown land [Chorus 3] Of roaring silence Dead end miracles (Bloody fields, bloody rules) I will now reveal (Join the American Gods) The secrets of the American Gods Transform to infinity (No one cares for names) The moment is right, you shall cry out The secrets of the American Gods [Outro] The American Gods Yes, we travel all alone A new play, a new scene Dripping blood seals the deal When we enter a new world Stranded, we are wandering Time? Time means nothing To the American Gods No more sorrows Praise the American Gods You are burning Yes, you are burning Oh, you must conquer your fear You better save yourself But now obey the American Gods You better save yourself
