Dayseeker - Gates Of Ivory Lyrics






How could you hope for me to be saved
When you're judging me from the front of the gates
Hell isn't make believe
It's the silence that lives between you and me

I'm living in a battle
Between your faith and my dismay
You're living in a chapel
But treat me like your personal plague

Drown in the water
Burn in the fire
God was not the one to ever hold me together
Lead the way to crucify, will it lead you to heaven?

Hell isn't make believe
It's the silence that lives between you and me

You pray when there's a crisis
With folded hands, down on your knees
The grace is undeserving
If you don't practice what you preach
You used to know me
But you let go slowly
It must be lonely
Being so holy

Drown in the water
Burn in the fire
God was not the one to ever hold me together
Lead the way to crucify, will it lead you to heaven?

You used to know me, but you let go slowly
Words written by the hands of men
And you call it divine intervention

Gates of ivory
Don't fall, don't fall

Gates of ivory
Don't fall from your tower
It must be lonely
Being so holy

Drown in the water
Burn in the fire
God was not the one to ever hold me together
Lead the way to crucify, will it lead you to heaven?
Drown in the water
Burn in the fire

(Burn in the fire)
Gates of ivory
Don't fall, don't fall

    This song is so relatable it hurts not gonna lie

  2. M.... C....

    Seriously though I can relate to this song...there was a time where one by one my siblings and are stopped going to church and our parents resented us for it.

    But ironically they saw that we became better people and did better things as Atheists than we ever did as Christians.

    Nothing against Christians but the forced expectation of virtue from us is what made us fall from grace to begin with...

  3. M.... C....

    HELL IS A MAPLE LEAF
    ITS THE SILENCE OF LAMBS BETWEEN YOU AND ME

  4. P.... M....

    Great album

  5. S.... C....

    IT MUST BE LONELY, BEING SO HOLY

  6. G.... ....

    "You used to know me, but you let go slowly. It must be lonely, being so holy." I love these lyrics so much. It's heartbreaking and almost insulting at the same time.

    Windwaker only harder

  9. W.... S....

    It must be lonely being so holy

  10. N.... A....

    Kinda wish the drums in the beginning where a bit more complex to showcase them more, though the rest of the song is sick.

    N.... A....

    some ghost notes would've been nice

    N.... A....

    @mpk 666 definitely agree

    N.... A....

    @Nico Aponte I still enjoy playing the song though, the simplicity is pretty fun.

  11. A.... ....

    I'm not a massive fan of this type of music,though this band is incredible,they are coming to my city this week,should I go see them? they are coming with a band called Wage war? I live In maryland,they are coming to Baltimore

    A.... ....

    Yeeesss u will love the hype that a metal show will bring. u will never regret it trust me

    A.... ....

    Definitely go if you have the option! Metalcore shows have an atmosphere that is unlike most other genres of music.

    A.... ....

    Both bands are great, as well as Polaris and LMTF

  12. J.... H....

    What can I say. Dreaming is sinking was one of my favorite albums ever, hands down. This and the color black are great. Not my favorite album but if you guys ever come to Hawaii I'll be there.

  13. m.... m....

    SICK!!!!!!!

  14. F.... ....

    Guitar work is very Architects-esque. Love it.

  15. N.... S....

    Holy mother of god this is better than sex

    How could you hope for me to be saved
    When you’re judging me from the front of the gates
    Hell isn’t make believe
    It’s the silence that lives between you and me

    I’m living in a battle
    Between your faith and my dismay
    You’re living in a chapel
    But treating me like your personal plague

    Drown in the water
    Or burn in the fire
    God was not the one that ever held me together
    Lead the way to crucify, will it lead you to heaven?
    Hell isn’t make believe
    It’s the silence that lives between you and me

    You pray when there’s a crisis
    With folded hands down on your knees
    That grace is undeserving if you don’t practice what you preach
    You used to know me
    But you let go slowly
    It must be lonely being so holy

    Drown in the water
    Or burn in the fire
    God was not the one that ever held me together
    Lead the way to crucify, will it lead you to heaven?
    You used to know me but you let go slowly
    Words written by the hands of man and you call it divine intervention

    Gates of Ivory, don’t fall, don’t fall
    Gates of Ivory, don’t fall from your tower, it must be lonely being so holy

    Drown in the water
    Or burn in the fire
    God was not the one that ever held me together
    Lead the way to crucify, will it lead you to heaven?
    Drown in the water
    Or burn in the fire

    Gates of Ivory, don’t fall, don’t fall

    J.... ....
