Lyrics

There are no sunsets just silence You could see that she was true and faithless But see through the future and forget all the lies 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 There are times when you feel hopeless Just for once, for no one else we are blameless The dawn is still breaking, its heaven 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 "Hold me," she said, "Love me to death" 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
