Lyrics Poets of the Fall

Poets of the Fall

Jealous Gods

Can you feel the void between us

Nothing there but light, yet it seems like the weight of the world

Keeping us here in the dark

If I allow our blessings define us

Bearing the scars of our loss like it's all we deserve

When passions we hold will depart

If I could build a bridge between us

Arcs of soaring rainbows

Strength of mother earth

Would it fill our hearts

If I instilled a faith to guide us

Blind and sweet like free flow

A seed in every word

Could we lose the facades

Are we just jealous gods

With every wall ablaze around us

Calling out your name like it's now and never surrender

Victory is yours to claim

By every trick of light by sleight of hand

That makes a miracle reality right where you stand

They got their claws in good and deep

So you see there ain't no placing the blame

And so I'll build a bridge between us

Arcs of soaring rainbows

Strength of mother earth

For a brand new start

And instil new faith to guide us

Blind and sweet like free flow

With every single word

We won't go down as frauds

Like jealous gods

Like jealous gods

We are the perfect flaws

Perfect with our flaws

Just jealous gods

Just jealous gods

We're the perfect flaws

The perfect flaws

I can sense your apprehension

Fear for naught for I'm here and I'm made of your love

Found in the quick of things

And we can walk the bridge between us

Arcs of soaring rainbows

Strength of mother earth

Let it fill our hearts

And instil a faith to guide us

Blind and sweet like free flow

There's a joy for every hurt

Forgiveness in the flaws

Even for jealous gods
