(Keep faith, keep faith, in barren wonder)

Great Lord, your love's divine

I spread your grace

I share your light

For the shores of Hell were burning

In purgatory's smell

Went a preacher with a crucifix

Brought mayhem and despair

So here comes a new god, be brave

A gospel illusion, the breeding of sin, I'll carry life

Come share this grace, come share our pain

Somehow we're not one yet somehow we're the same

Now strong in blue, it shall begin

Soon forgotten with the ring

Hail, nice to meet you

Another newborn stranger

I'm so glad you have made it

Somehow you've made it

Welcome to the promised land

There are no sights, there are no miracles (Shall spare no names)

You should not reveal (For the American Gods)

The secrets of the American Gods

Just hold to infinity (No one cares for names)

You can't escape, better hide now

The secrets of the American Gods

So when I look upon

These fields of misery

Who would not sacrifice a son?

My son is now gone

We share our tricks, we share our oaths

Discarded plans, distorted use

It's dripping blood fields

It's what this land needs

Life's creeping back at you, back at you

Sadly to say, but

Oh, there is no guiding spark

So bright, you're blazing starlight

And we are watching you, watching you

Stranger in a newborn land

Of formless Gods and warlock miracles (All these fields of crows)

You should not reveal (From the American Gods)

The secrets of the American Gods

Just hold to infinity (No one cares for names)

You better bow down, praise the new lords

The secrets of the American Gods

Take a look at yourself

All behold, here's another trick

But now in light of hope and glory

It is time to close your eyes, I shall live

All sticks of the stem shall

Resurrect these moments gone

Contemplate desire

An eternal flame's burning down

Don't be scared, follow the plan

All lives can stream like birds singing

Behold your Father of violence

The one-eyed god is sad

I thought you'd know that

The greatest liar is telling you the total truth

I thought you'd know that

I'm your master, stranger in an unknown land

Of roaring silence dead and miracles (Bloody fields, bloody roots)

I will now reveal (For the American Gods)

The secrets of the American Gods

Just hold to infinity (No one cares for names)

The moment is right, you should cry out

The secrets of the American Gods

The American Gods

Yes, we travel all alone

A new play, a new scene

Dripping blood seals the deal

When we enter a new world

Stranded we're wandering

Time, time means nothing

To the American Gods

No more sorrows

Praise the American Gods

You are burning

Yes, you are burning

Oh, you must conquer your fear

You better save yourself

But now obey the American Gods

You better save yourself
