lyrics

there must be a god that keeps us apart
there must be a god that pulls us together
it must have all been controlled from the start
see the hands moving pieces, pulling levers

it's said there are forces beyond our control
and that storms may keep a ship from reaching port
you may doubt my intentions but i meant it all
and it was a promise, not a last resort

we'll get away cross stormy seas
we've made it through darker nights than these
the gods may turn the tide
but in the end only we decide

there must be a god that put your face in my mind
and there must be a god who drinks the soldier's blood
everybody's got a fate but we're all of us blind
so we might as well try and make our way in this world

we'll get away from this land
we'll let the pain come to an end
i want you to know i'm coming back
and let the gods be the ones to react
because it's to you i give my vow
not to the gods, at least not now
love of mine, we'll beat the odds
for we are greater than the gods
