About the work
False God
[Chorus]
Everyone praises you, like you’re a god
Everyone applauds, but with no light of their own
Though you don’t care what we’ve become
You’ll always be the one who laughs last
[Verse]
We were shadows beneath your temple walls
The echo that raised your hollow throne
We clapped for the emptiness of your crown
But you silenced us with cold disdain
You laughed on... knowing well
That we’d fall once more... broken and blind
[Bridge]
You gave us light
Then took it away
And sold us hope... disguised as fate
[Chorus]
Everyone praises you, but not all of us remain
Everyone applauds, but the echoes fade
Though you don’t care what we once were
Someone else will laugh last
[Chorus]
Everyone praises you, like you’re a god
Everyone applauds... but no longer with faith
Though you mock what we once were
You’ll be the one laughing... but not the one living at the end
