Logard - A Bride for God Lyrics

On a throne of protest, the bride did sit
Sighing loudly, tapping her foot, a restless fit
She didn't want to give her body away
To trade her joyful life for a peaceful sway

Quietly sobbing, counting on her fingers
Minutes until a new and frightening love lingers
Afraid to believe that time had frozen still
And nothing could revive her childhood's thrill

A bride for God, a fate so grim
Sacrificing youth, on a holy whim
Trapped in a destiny, she cannot change
A future so bleak, so very strange

Then someone spoke, "Go, my dear,
Why do you fear leaving your throne here?
The gates are open, they await your grace
A bride for God - a funeral's final place."

Tears falling like rain, her heart in chains
Bound to a path, where nothing remains
Of the life she knew, the dreams she held dear
Now replaced by a future, so austere

A bride for God, a fate so grim
Sacrificing youth, on a holy whim
Trapped in a destiny, she cannot change
A future so bleak, so very strange

In the halls of heaven, a wedding awaits
But the bride's heart rebels, against the fates
Longing for freedom, for a different choice
Silenced by tradition, muted her voice

A bride for God, a fate so grim
Sacrificing youth, on a holy whim
Trapped in a destiny, she cannot change
A future so bleak, so very strange

With heavy steps, she walks down the aisle
A forced smile, masking her inner trial
A bride for God, forever she'll be
Bound to a life, she never wished to see
