"Take Me To Church" lyrics

"Take Me To Church"
(originally by Hozier)

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

My church offers no absolutes, no
She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom"
The only Heaven I'll be sent to
When I'm alone with you
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well

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
