Soen
God’s Acre
[Verse 1]
Everything around decay
Only sorrow grows up on these plains
Nothing but a somber lane
Early warnings of what will come
Standing at the crossroads
There's no turnin' back

[Verse 2]
We were searchin' deep beneath the ground
But the seed of life was never found
Endless times of digging in the dirt
Will we ever find a peaceful life?
Will we ever leave the ghost behind?
Would it make it easier in the end?
Will you find what you are looking for
When you try and find an open door?
All is clear, no one's in your way

[Chorus]
God's acre‚ barren land
All what grows here turns to sand
Dead roses on this drain
No savior will await

[Verse 3]
We keep searchin' for an alibi
How we stifle any trace of life
Still they're sending shivers down the spine
Now we are both being disarmed
Shunned away from hope and home
No indifference
[Chorus]
God's acre‚ barren land
All what grows here turns to sand
Dead roses on this drain
No savior will await

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Streets are damp and lights are low
I'm facing one more early dawn
Driftin' in the calm before the storm

I have to speak straight from the heart
These gates are tearing us apart
They made us into what we are
There's always a reason
The addiction to a reckless life
Left us with this constant strife
Scrapin' up the pieces from
The bottom of our hearts

[Outro]
Please forgive me my mistakes
I guided us into this place
A god forsaken land
Where nothing grows
