The Agonist - Take Me to Church

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
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
Good God, let me give you my life
If I'm a pagan of the good time
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice drain the whole sea
Get something shiny

Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine-looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving 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 my deathless death
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
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 toil of
That sad earthly scene
Only then I am human, only then I am clean

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
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
Good God, let me give you my life

Take me to church take me to church
Won't you take me? Take me to church
