God, Nietzsche and me.
Lyrics
Godspeed
Verse 1:
I had the strangest dream one night,
I was cruising down a street of light.
Two mirrored headlights were getting near,
So I shifted into higher gear.
But the car came up next to me,
A grey cloaked man is all I see.
He smiled at me and waved his hand,
As if he recognised a long lost friend.
Is this a joke at my expense?
Does God really drive Mercedes-Benz?
Chorus:
Nietzsche said, God is dead.
So what is he doing here in my head?
What is life, where is peace?
I’d like to have some answers please.
Verse 2:
I followed him, we drove to Mars,
And had some drinks on distant stars.
So I asked, what is fake, what is real?
What’s the point and what’s the deal?
That cosmic airbag keeps swelling up.
Tell me, is that ever gonna stop?
So where’s the needle, where’s the pin?
To expose the stuff we’re really in.
Man, his words were so bizarre.
Dust of stars ain’t what we are.
Chorus:
Nietzsche said, God is dead.
So what is he doing here in my head?
What is life, where is peace?
I’d like to have some answers please.
Verse 3:
I woke up in my bed again,
Felt the carkeys in my hand.
His words still ringing in my ear,
No need for guilt, no need for fear.
If freedom is the path you choose,
can you see it in the things you loose.
Well my bank account has gone to hell.
My precious car I had to sell.
Cause I got a ticket that very night,
For driving at the speed of light.
Chorus:
Nietzsche said, God is dead.
So what is he doing here in my head?
What is life, where is peace?
I’d like to have some answers please.
Chorus:
Nietzsche said, God is dead.
So what is he doing here in my head?
What is life, where is peace?
Can somebody tell me please.
Can somebody tell me please.
