Sugar In The Sacrament |
What have you done? |
You follow footsteps in the dark |
and found your faith |
left out behind your father’s car. |
You said, «there's no one watching over me or over you, it’s always out of reach…» |
I’m sinking still right into: |
Oh my god where are you now? |
Fractured lives dissolving |
Like sugar in the sacrament |
If it was just one night |
Then we would be released |
Tie these lies between our teeth |
Keep tearing open bodies |
'Let it bleed' |
Tonight |
Where have you gone? |
Off with the friends you couldn’t keep |
You mother’s arms |
Fill up with all the empty needs |
So the saints line up to bring her in, |
Comfort her and it’s always comforting |
When they start to sing, |
the same old: |
'Holy holy, lift up your dress |
Feel your body dissolving |
Like sugar in the sacrament' |
«If it was just one night |
Then you could be redeemed |
Tie these sins between your teeth, |
Make hollow promises we’ll never keep tonight.» |
This is all we’ve ever known of God. |
Fight with me let me touch you now. |
