Devlin – Our Farther Lyrics
Lyrics
Hook
- I’ll see you
- I, I, I, I, I, I made this world for you
- I made this world for you
- I’ll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you
- I made this world for you
Verse 1
- I look down on this race I created and all I see is violence and hatred
- I shake my head as I whizz by in my space ship
- The world is like my movie screen, plus 18
- Because peace is far and few between
- Ever since Eve took the Apple off the snake
- Humanity sealed it’s fate and then tragedy laid in wait
- Killer tsunamis caused by tectonic plates, changing shape,
- at the oceans base, releasing explosive rage
- I’m just sat here in my burgundy robe observing the globe
- Pondering if the life that I created will ever learn to evolve
- I filled your oceans full of fish and I put birds in the sky
- And everyday you sit and curse on your lives
- You ain’t worshipping I
- How did you manage to ruin such a beautiful planet?
- The turn of the times left my continents and countries ridden with murder and crime
- Earthly decline
Hook
- People look cold like the freezin’ rain
- All truth be told, we don’t see the same
- People look cold, like the freezin’ rain
- Like the freezin’ rain, my son died in vain
- I’ll see you
- I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you
- I made this world for you
- I’ll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you
- I made this world for you
Verse 2
- He made the world in seven days and six nights and then he rested on the seventh
- Now everybody’s sinnin’, it seems emptier in heaven
- Rest In Peace to everyone who lost their lives in Haiti and September the 11th
- As well as 7/7
- ‘Cause I was on the train an hour before
- I guess I got a higher purpose in the eyes of the Lord
- Who looks down from the sky into the fire and storm
- And sees governments in unison like one big global Mafia
- They’re paying soldiers for a foe to blow a strap at ya’
- From heaven's door watch him maintain the war, to continue selling metal to the masses like Metallica
- I feel although a lot of love has been lost
- If I was God I’d be cross that my son had to die on the cross, cross, cross
- If I was God I’d be cross that my son had to die on the cross
Hook
- People look cold like the freezin’ rain
- All truth be told, we don’t see the same
- People look cold, like the freezin’ rain
- Like the freezin’ rain, my son died in vain
- I’ll see you
- I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you
- I made this world for you
- I’ll see you, I, I, I, I, I I made this world for you
- I made this world for you
