AND THE BAND PLAYED NEARER, MY GOD, TO THEE — A prophetic deathcore anthem about cultural collapse, denial, and false peace, portraying a society that keeps performing comfort and distraction while everything beneath it falls apart.

Lyrics:

Screens glow brighter than the truth
Static sermons, rehearsed abuse
We trade our souls for numbered lives
Smile on cue while the spirit dies

Plastic prayers in neon light
Buy your hope and sleep at night
Banners raised, no one leads
Crowns of paper, mouths that bleed

We see the damage
We close our eyes
We sign the lie

The band keeps playing through the fire
Soft songs for funeral choirs
We clap for kings with empty hands
And call it peace as it all collapses

Scroll past graves in real time feeds
Sell your rage for dopamine
Every sin gets sanitized
Every wound is monetized

Broken mics and staged remorse
Truth rerouted off its course
We drown it out with curated noise
Laughing while we lose our voice

You hear the alarms
You mute the sound

The band keeps playing through the fire
Soft songs for funeral choirs
We clap for kings with empty hands
And call it peace as it all collapses

This is your warning
This is your chance
No more pretending
No second stand

Wake up
Before it’s over

We built this cage with open eyes
We fed it fear and called it wise
Now it’s closing, inch by inch
Every comfort is a switch

You chose the song
Over the truth
You chose the lie
Over proof

The band keeps playing through the fire
Soft songs for funeral choirs
No more hymns for hollow lands
No more mercy for the damned

This is the end of the comfort lie
This is the truth you can’t deny

And the band played nearer, my God, to Thee
And the band played nearer, my God, to Thee

And the band played
And the band played
And the band played nearer, my God, to Thee

And the band played nearer, my God, to Thee

And the band played nearer, my God, to Thee
And the band played nearer, my God, to Thee
