lyrics

The God of darkness sees only light
The God of the day knows only night
The God of of the flowers is made out of weeds
The God of you you looks a lot like me
The God of the wind is made out of sand
The God of the sea he knows only land
and the God of the water could never get wet
and the God of our love seems to always forget
But the God of time is always late
The God of our plans he knows not his fate
The God of wakefulness always asleep
The mountain God lies in a mine somewhere deep

The Goddess of mercy she carries a sword
The Goddess of of silence can always be heard
The God of reality lives in a dream
The Goddess of you lives inside of me
The God impermanence will last forever
The God true meaning is light as a feather
The God of the champion lives in defeat
The Goddess of you lives right inside of me
The God of our tears is smiling on
While the God of mistakes has never been wrong
A dog with his bone is a god to the flea
The Goddess of you lives inside of me
