Final Thoughts And The Last Day On Earth Lyrics

heaven haunts me kill for a cigarette
heaven is all that i got
my god left me without one word of warning
my god left me waiting is all that i got

i've seen your face before
i've seen your anger crashing down
all my life i've seen your babies
crashing to the ground

my girl brought me comfort to keep me stable
needles paid for comfort is all that i got

my god left me without one word of warning
my god left me
my god is all that i got

i've seen your face before
i've seen your anger crashing down
all my life i've seen your babies
crashing to the ground

don't be afraid
we're all afraid

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Well, David Usher is a known athiest, really for a long time--I think this song shows the scary side of atheism, not just the "cool" side (as nowadays people tend to be atheist because it's a trend or they're too "cool" for religion), and how if this is an ideaology, you need to accept the fear along with the philosophy.

"my god left me without one word of warning my god left me waiting is all that i got "

Sort of like, faith leaving you...

"don't be afraid we're all afraid" -- i love this part. :P

Atheism is not some hipster fad or a trendy disco dance it is a belief that there is no god, creator, or diety. Based on your interpretation of the song I assume you have confused atheism with agnosticism. To be afraid of something is to beleive it at least could exist.

I interpret the song as the thoughts of someone who knows they are going to die but the only way to know the true meaning is to ask the artist.
