low and beholden

Lyrics

no god, no god has ever abandoned me, no savior, i came here by way of my own two feet, there was no god, to ever abandon me, i made my bed to sleep in, constructing my own beliefs, at first empowered by the pride, to mold my own truth from a lie, my guiding light was designed, by the questions whose answers, it was made to help me find, i'm not cut out for this task, i'm just a man, taking on the weight of a god, in my own hands, no chain of command, i'm all alone in this land, i understand, why people put their faith in, someone with his own plan, but i can't look back, for i may become a pillar of salt, forsaken here in a kingdom of faults, so smug to think that i am so much better off, as if my freedom means that i'll never be lost, to keep pretending that i am so self-assured, is just as delusional as those who defer, we're more the same than we are not, at first empowered by the pride, to mold my own truth from a lie, my guiding light was designed, by the questions whose answers, it was made to help me find, i'm not cut out for this task, i'm just a man, taking on the weight of a god, in my own hands, no chain of command, i'm all alone in this land, i understand, why people put their faith in, someone with his own plan, but i can't look back, i have learned to lick my wounds, the only faith i'm holding onto, i remember when the laughter left my face, i hung my head but not to pray, i know it's all the same, we're aimless, the god you made won't save us, how can i claim to be the one to call the shots?, how can i claim to be my own god?, how long before my hubris catches up?, i am no better off
