Foreigner's God

Lyrics

She moved with shameless wonder
 The perfect creature rarely seen
 Since some liar brought the thunder
 When the land was godless and free
 Her eyes look sharp and steady
 Into the empty parts of me
 But still my heart is heavy
 With the hate of some other man's beliefs
 Always a well dressed fraud
 Who wouldn't spare the rod
 Never for me
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
 Wondering who I copy
 Mustering some tender charm
 She feels no control of her body
 She feels no safety in my arms
 I've no language left to say it
 But all I do is quake to her
 Breaking if I try convey it
 The broken love I make to her
 All that I've been taught
 And every word I've got
 Is foreign to me
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
 ♪
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
 
 She moved with shameless wonder
 The perfect creature rarely seen
 Since some liar brought the thunder
 When the land was godless and free
 Her eyes look sharp and steady
 Into the empty parts of me
 But still my heart is heavy
 With the hate of some other man's beliefs
 Always a well dressed fraud
 Who wouldn't spare the rod
 Never for me
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
 Wondering who I copy
 Mustering some tender charm
 She feels no control of her body
 She feels no safety in my arms
 I've no language left to say it
 But all I do is quake to her
 Breaking if I try convey it
 The broken love I make to her
 All that I've been taught
 And every word I've got
 Is foreign to me
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief

 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 Screaming the name of a foreigner's God
 The purest expression of grief
