"Sacrosanct" lyrics

"Sacrosanct"

My flesh
Oh no
It's not me that you want
My blood
My lord
I didn't wish to be born

This is obscene
It's only in my dreams where I hear you go
"You're sacrosanct, I thought I'd let you know"
No one knows you put a broken soul in a child's bones
I'll hold my shame and I'll take the blows

My son
Oh god
It's not him that you want
I'll cave
Why me?
I'd never choose to be your saint

This is obscene
It's only in my dreams where I hear you go
"You're sacrosanct, I thought I'd let you know"
No one knows you put a broken soul in a child's bones
I'll hold my shame and I'll take the blows

This is obscene
It's only in my dreams where I hear you go
"You're sacrosanct, I thought I'd let you know"
No one knows you put a broken soul in a child's bones
I'll hold my shame and I'll take the blows
I'll hold my shame and I'll take the blows
