Take Me To Church (feat. Lyra)

My lover's got humour
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshipped her sooner

If the heavens ever did speak
She's the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's gettin' more bleak
Fresh poison each week

We were born sick
I heard them say it

My church offers no absolutes
She tells me, worship in the bedroom
The only heaven I'll be sent to
Is when I'm alone with you

I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
Amen, amen, amen, amen

Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the
Shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh, good God, let me give you my life

Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the
Shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins, and you can
Sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh, good God, let me give you my life

I'm a pagan for the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
Drain the whole sea
Get somethin' shiny

Somethin' meaty for the main course
That's a fine lookin' high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starvin' faithful
That looks tasty, that looks plenty
This is hungry work

Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
At the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins, so you can
Sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh, good God, let me give you my life

Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the
Shrine of your lies
I tell you my sins so you can
Sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh, good God, let me give you my life

No masters or kings
When the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence
Than our gentle sin

In the madness and soil of
That sad earthly scene
Only then, I am human
Only then, I am free
Amen, amen, amen

Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the
Shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins, and you can
Sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh, good God, let me give you my life

Take me to church
(And shouldn't you take
For your own pleasure too?)
(Amen)
And you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Oh, good God, let me give you my life
