God Beware is a song about not letting go.

Would you resurrect a departed love, performing spells of reanimation while pulling sinews and bone from covering clay?  If you could, what consequence would such a dark act also deliver?  It's true some partings seem impossible to reconcile, but continuing to court the past, even in thought, leads to the greater casualty of hope.

God Beware (words and music by Sean Riley)

Is this now or memory?
Are you here, beside me?
When I wake alone,
Your gone.

I should be brave and let you go.
But cast a spell in midnight snow.
So your ghost is bound,
To me.

God beware, my prayer.

It is wrong keeping  you from rest?
I hold your bones against my chest.
Can't let go of who,
I was.

Is this now or memory?
Are you here, beside me?
When I wake alone,
Your gone.

God beware, my prayer
