When We Were Gods Lyrics

You and I in embryonic fluid
So entwined we could not let go
Cradled in your arms, reading poems of darkness
Fueled our love, it fueled our love
But I just want you to remember

When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, we lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods

Even now, covered in your ashes
Swollen tongue, bloodshot eyes
I am not defined by all of your disorders
I am good, and I will rise
But I just want you to remember

When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, we lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
When we were gods

You though you could violate me when you wanted to
You though you could kill the part of me that haunted you
You though you could violate me when you wanted to
You though you could kill the part of me that haunted you

When we were gods, when we were demons
We had it all, we had our reasons
We danced through the victories, lived through the scars
I counted blessings while you counted stars
We had it all, yeah we had it all
When we were gods
When we were gods
