Lyrics of Take me to church

(jess:)
My lover's got humour
She's the giggle at a funeral
Everybody's disapproval
I should've worshiped her sooner

If the heavens ever did speak
She's the last true mouthpiece
Every sunday's getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week

'we were born sick', you heard them say it

(amira:)
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

(all:)
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
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

(asami:)
If i'm a pagan of the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice

(asami and shereen:)
Drain the whole sea, get something shiny

(shereen:)
Something meaty for the main course
Oh, what a fine looking high horse
Oh, what you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty, that looks plenty
This is hungry work

(all:)
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

(shereen:)
No masters or kings when the ritual begins

(amira:)
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin

(shereen:)
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene

(amira:)
Only then i am human, only then i am clean

(all:)
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
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

(asami:)
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
