You're No God Lyrics - Alas I Cannot Swim - Laura Marling

Your mum thinks you're sad 

That you're living alone, 

And your friends think if you're sad 

You should call them more. 

But the truth is 

That you never needed someone to comfort you 

Oh you've never needed someone to comfort you. 

But you're no god, you're no god. 

And you will never leave this place, 

And you will always feel alone, 

And you will never feel quite clean 

In this new skin that you have grown 

Until your old and broken bones 

Are laid into their resting place 

Just like the rest of human race.

Til I fall into my place, 

Just like the rest of human race, 

Til I'm laid into my final resting place, 

Just like the rest of human race who've done it, 

Without complaining all the way. 

But you're no god, you're no god. 

As long as you promise 

That you will never leave 

I need only worry about 

You and me. 

We will never leave this place, 

We need never feel alone, 

We will learn to feel quite clean 

In this new skin that we have grown 

Because our young and healthy bones 

Would never lead us astray.

We will learn to feel quite clean, in this new skin that we have 

We will learn to feel quite clean, in this new skin that we have 

We will learn to feel quite clean, in this new skin that we have grown 

Because our young and healthy bones 

Would never lead us astray.
