Is it too much to want to hold the sun?
To flip a switch and take the light from everyone?
Is it too bold to want to crush a soul?
To be the weight bearing down upon your heart of hearts?

[Chorus]
Let's not go too far
I just want to be your God
Watching you and keeping you from harm...

When you lose control, you crawl into a hole
But when I lose control, convulsions shake the stars above
Did I say out loud "I want to cut you down"?
Excuse me while I take the ground from underneath your feet

[Chorus]

Let's not go too far
I just want to be your God
Watching over every one of you

Now you wanna be left to fate
And now you wanna be kept in place
And now you wanna come face to face
And be free of the eternal embrace...
Well...
I'll see what I can do about that

[Chorus]

I want to be your God
