God's Not Here Tonight - Matthew Ryan

I poured a drink

And sat to watch the blue burn back to stars

And every thought was that blown up film

Of when you crashed our getaway car

Now all this talk

Don’t add up to much

When you were counting on those friends

That let you down again

These prayers and songs

Get dark and long

Well If he cared then he just might

But god’s not here tonight

You’ve got some nerve to talk like this

Once you’ve turned to act like that

I lost some teeth while defending you

And you folded like a rat

Now all this talk

Don’t add up to much

When you were counting on those friends

That let you down again

These prayers and songs

Get dark and long

Well If he cared then he just might

But god’s not here tonight…

— I don’t care what you wanted, I don’t care if you’re scared —

This world gets hard on hearts that want

And hope for more than this

But like that sun that just disappeared

So will this ghost on my lips

Yeah all this talk

Don’t add up to much

When you were counting on those friends

That let you down again

These prayers and songs

Get dark and long

Well If he cared then he just might

But god’s not here tonight…

-I don’t care what you wanted, I don’t care if you’re scared-
