You're No God Lyrics
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.
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.
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.
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.
As long as you promise
That you will never leave
I need only worry about
You and me.
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 grown
Because our young and healthy bones
Would never lead us astray.

to me it's about how people pretend to be very strong and independent but nevertheless feel lonely and miserable inside until they eventually find their companion.
this entire song is fucking amazing!
"You're no god You're no god You will never leave this place You will always feel alone 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." so catchy and insightful
Until I'm laid into my final resting place, just like the rest of human race, Who've done it without complaining all the way.

Mom thinks that you're sad And 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

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 Until I'm laid into my final resting place Just like the rest of human race Who've done it without complaining all the way

all of her lyrics are amazing <3
so few comments! one of the best songs off the album, imo.
Totally agree, Stain. I also think it may be talking about coming to terms with something before you can fully move on in life. Such as in the lyrics:
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.
I absolutely love Laura Marling and believe she needs to be more commonly known to everyone. Her music is so unique and beautiful.
Such a great song.
"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." <3
It's all in the title of this song.....You're No God = You're not special so shut the hell up and keep on keeping on. We love, we die, we are human. Such a simple beautiful message.
