About the Artist
Lyrics
There are no sunsets just silence You could see that she was true and faithless So scream the scriptures and edit the sky And black out the words for the blind have eyes I am the girl that wanted to be God I am the girl that wanted to be God Morning is an overcast, a puzzled dance The morning fades until it breathes its last The dawn is still breaking, its heaven is so high She told the truth, told the truth, and then she lied I am the girl that wanted to be God I am the girl that wanted to be God Elect a new sun, reflect tension I am the girl that wanted to be God I am the girl that wanted to be God I am the girl that wanted to be God I am the girl that wanted to be God
