God Module Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't have to talk to you, do I? I can just feel
And you'll feel it right here too
Words can't describe
And I don't have to talk to you do I?]
Don't think you know me
Not everyone is who they seem to be
Or the words you read or write but you say
Start sleeping with the light on
The things you see are beyond doubts
You don't need your eyes anymore
Open them to see me rip them out
[He still freak you out?
Nothing freaks me out
Try living with him]
Now symbols can describe
This fragile blood I feel
I'm the enemy in the end
A victim among your friends
You still want to see
Some worth inside of me
Don't fool yourself again
You are my victim, not my friend.
*screams*
No symptoms to describe
This nothing that I feel inside
No salt to leave me paralyzed
You were never my friend
An emptiness only I can see
To me its gift of a disease
Want me to hurt you just say please
I was never your friend
No symbols can describe
This fragile blood I feel
I'm the enemy in the end
A victim among your friends
You still want to see
Some worth inside of me
Don't fool yourself again
You are my victim, not my friend.
screams
You were never my friend
I was never your friend.
Now symbols can describe
This fragile blood I feel
I'm the enemy in the end
A victim among your friends
You still want to see
Some worth inside of me
Don't fool yourself again
You are my victim, not my fucking friend
I was never your friend.
[Words can't describe it
And I don't have to talk to you, do i?
I can just...
Feel.]
The song "Victims Among Friends" by God Module is a dark and menacing piece about betrayal and deception. The opening line "Words can't describe it" establishes a sense of intense emotion that cannot be easily articulated using language. The singer appears to be addressing someone who they do not want to communicate with, instead, they will rely on their intuition to convey what they want to say. The repetition of the phrase "And I don't have to talk to you, do I?" is a way of emphasizing the singer's detachment and disdain for the person they are addressing.
The song's chorus alludes to the idea that not everyone is who they seem to be, and that one's instincts may not always be trustworthy. The singer warns the listener to sleep with the light on, as the things they will see are unsettling and beyond doubt. The following lines suggest an act of violence, with the singer threatening to rip out the listener's eyes. This imagery is disturbing, and it heightens the song's sense of horror.
Overall, "Victims Among Friends" is a chilling song that explores themes of betrayal and paranoia. The song's lyrics are poetic and intense, and they are accompanied by a driving beat and distorted vocals that create a sense of unease and foreboding.

Words can't describe it
There are no words to adequately express my emotions
And I don't have to talk to you, do I?
I don't need to communicate verbally with you
I can just feel
My feelings will be evident through my actions
And you'll feel it right here too
You will experience my emotions as well
Don't think you know me
You don't have an accurate understanding of who I am
Not everyone is who they seem to be
People are not always what they appear to be
They don't trust your instincts
Others do not have faith in your intuition
Or the words you read or write but you say
The things you read, write, or say do not build trust with others
Start sleeping with the light on
You should be afraid and alert at all times
The things you see are beyond doubts
You cannot question the validity of what you are witnessing
You don't need your eyes anymore
Visual proof is unnecessary
Open them to see me rip them out
If you do use your eyes, I will harm you
He still freak you out?
Are you still scared of him?
Nothing freaks me out
I am not afraid of anything
Try living with him
You cannot understand what it's like to live with him
Now symbols can describe
I can use symbols to represent my emotions
This fragile blood I feel
I am emotionally wounded
I'm the enemy in the end
In the end, I am my own enemy
A victim among your friends
I am a victim even among those who are supposed to be my friends
You still want to see
You still believe that I have value
Some worth inside of me
You think there is something worthwhile about me
Don't fool yourself again
Do not deceive yourself
You are my victim, not my friend.
You are someone who has been negatively affected by me
No symptoms to describe
There are no physical symptoms associated with my emotional pain
This nothing that I feel inside
I am emotionally numb
No salt to leave me paralyzed
There is no external cause for my emotional pain
You were never my friend
You were never someone I trusted or valued as a friend
An emptiness only I can see
The pain I feel is internal and invisible to others
To me its gift of a disease
I view my emotional pain as a positive force
Want me to hurt you just say please
I am inclined to harm those who cross me
I was never your friend
I never trusted or valued you as a friend
You are my victim, not my fucking friend
You have been negatively impacted by me and we are not friends

Got this CD when they played at Denver's Dark Arts festival like 16 years ago... there was like 4 versions of this song on it and this one was my fave. Live, the singer and 2 djs switched places so each one sang and DJ'ed. While someone hang by their piercings and the guy singing in this version was ripping black duct tape off his naked body on stage. Oh and it was held at what is now The Church Nightclub. Talk about aesthetic... oh and I was 11 cause I had good friends in the scene. The kind of thing that made me who I am and I would never take it back...

That was my first time there and i was expecting people to be more active! My friend and I were on the right side of the stage dancing like crazy. I had a long sleeved shirt with a cross necklace. After God Module left i was the really the only person dancing in the middle of the room. Then we went down to the 3rd room and just went all out there :)
