I got used to the sound of the lightning strike
Like a God - tearing me down from your seat on high I see the wrath in your
Eyes so cold I don't recognize
I see the signs, see the signs

Looking down I'm stained, can't wash it off
Clawing but I'm drenched in toxic love
Didn't know devotion had a cost
Can you tell me when I've paid it off

If you claim to be God
I'd rather be Godless
If you want my whole heart
I'd rather be heartless
Won't get on my knees to worship and praise
If that's what you want / then losing me's the price you'll pay
If you claim to be God,
I'd rather be Godless
Rather be Godless

I, I signed my name on the dotted line
On fire, burned to my bones for your holy shrine
Like your living sacrifice

Looking down I'm stained, can't wash it off
Clawing but I'm drenched in toxic love
Didn't know devotion had a cost
Can you tell me when I've paid it off

If you claim to be God
I'd rather be Godless
If you want my whole heart I'd rather be heartless
Won't get on my knees to worship and praise
If that's what you want / then losing me's the price you'll pay
If you claim to be God,
I'd rather be Godless
Rather be Godless

You claim to be God
You're heartless
Rather be Godless
Ooh, Godless

I named you my god
Forgot about my own divinity
c round of applause
Recruited in your crooked symphony
Let me remind you whose power you stole
I could unmake you rip you off my throne
How do you feel, oh, the tables have turned
Now I'm in control

If you claim to be God
I'd rather be Godless
If you want my whole heart
I'd rather be heartless
Won't get on my knees to worship and praise
If that's what you want / then losing me's the price you'll pay
If you claim to be God,
I'd rather be Godless
Rather be Godless

You claim to be God
You're heartless
Rather be Godless
Ooh, Godless
