Metallica - The God That Failed

pride you took
pride you feel
pride that you felt when you`d kneel


not the word
not the love
not what you thought from above


it feeds
it grows
it clouds all that you will know
deceit
deceive
decide just what you believe


I see faith in your eyes
never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
broken is the promise, betrayal
the healing hand held back by the deepened nail
follow the god that failed


find your peace
find your say
find the smooth road on your way


trust you gave
a child to save
left you cold and him in grave


it feeds
it grows
it clouds all that you will know
deceit
deceive
decide just what you believe


I see faith in your eyes
never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
broken is the promise, betrayal
the healing hand held back by the deepened nail
follow the god that failed


I see faith in your eyes
broken is the promise, betrayal
the healing hand held back by the deepened nail
follow the god that failed


pride you took
pride you feel
pride that you felt when you`d kneel


trust you gave
a child to save
left you cold and him in grave


I see faith in your eyes
never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries
broken is the promise, betrayal
the healing hand held back by the deepened nail
follow the god that failed
