A Smaller God

In the violent silence Of a dream within a dream You fill my soul with beauty You're my shiny man machine I'm sinking in the roses Falling down to fade away Your velvet blade of apathy Makes the crush so bittersweet And I, I could have died last night But I heard the voice of a smaller god And I, I could have died last night But I heard the voice of a smaller god Your presence is the morning Your absence is the night I'm searching your dark hallways And I'm trying to find your light I'm swimming your sad oceans I'm drowning in your sea This will all be over soon And we'll learn to live again And I, I could have died last night But I heard the voice of a smaller god And I, I could have died last night But I heard the voice of a smaller god In the evening stars I see your eyes I hear you speak to me I miss you now so much it aches You're so broken, so afraid And I, I could have died last night But I heard the voice of a smaller god And I, I could have died last night But I heard the voice of a smaller god
