Their music is characterised as a mixture of dramatic goth rock and appealing dance beats with an atmospheric, industrial soundscape. It is further enhanced by the clean, terrifyingly deep vocal talents of lead vocalist/guitarist Jason C Miller and his morbidly gothic lyrical content.

The Gift
Godhead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lift your head up to the sky
There's a better place for you and I
My gift to you
So you'll learn and so you'll grow
Right now it seems you'll never know
How can I live
When all that I have to give
How can I give to you
Something that you never want to see
In me or in you?
Destroy your life: that's what you want to do
Fall backward
Pick yourself up off the ground
Can't you see what I have found?
Look inward
Feel the warmth inside of you
Let everything you touch be new
How can I give to you
Something that you never want to see
In me or in you?
Destroy your life, that's what you want to do
The lyrics of Godhead's "The Gift" present a narrative between two individuals, one who seems to be offering guidance and support ("Go forward / Lift your head up to the sky / There's a better place for you and I / My gift to you"), and the other who is resistant to this offer and perhaps struggling with personal demons ("Destroy your life: that's what you want to do"). The singer is grappling with the limitations of their ability to help, feeling as though they have something valuable to offer but unsure of how to make it palatable to the other person ("How can I give to you / Something that you never want to see / In me or in you?"). Ultimately, the message seems to be one of hope and resilience, with the singer urging the other person to look inward and find new possibilities ("Let everything you touch be new").

Lift your head up to the sky
Look up and aim high

There's a better life ahead for us
My gift to you
My present to you
So you'll learn and so you'll grow
So that you'll learn and grow

Fall down
Pick yourself up off the ground
Get up and start over
Can't you see what I have found?
Can't you see what I discovered?
Look inward
Look inside yourself
Feel the warmth inside of you
Feel the passion inside of you
Let everything you touch be new
Let everything you come into contact with be fresh

Something that you don't want to acknowledge
In me or in you?
In myself or in you?
Destroy your life, that's what you want to do
You want to ruin your own life
