"Holy Work" lyrics
"Holy Work"
In the end, it seems you were
The perfect pilgrim that needed proof
Before you jump, strip away
The ceremony is just an end
You and your holy work
Was the reason this didn't work
You could've used those hands to hold me
Back here on Earth
Do God's bidding, His holy work
Hold me like you deeply held truce
I'm questioning, answering to you
The form for me, one that showed
An obligation to be fulfilled
You and your holy work
Was the reason this didn't work
You could've used those hands to hold me
Back here on Earth
Do God's bidding, His holy work
Can we pray together
This once?
Let us pray together
This once
Can we pray together
This once?
Let us pray together
This once
(This once, this once)
(This once, this once)
(This once, this once)
(This once)
(This once)

Purity Ring - "Obedear" I came down over the sleepy mountains where our
Wide toes plunged into the weeping shale to tear our
Skin up off from the bottom leaves our ankles bare
Don't just wander back and forth and leave it...
M83 - "Reunion" You came out of nowhere
Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Will you stand in this land?
Will you...
Vampire Weekend - "A-Punk" Johanna drove slowly into the city
The Hudson River all filled with snow
She spied the ring on His Honor's finger
Oh, oh, oh
A thousand years in one piece of silver
She took it from his lily-white...
alt-J - "Every Other Freckle" Ah
I want to share your mouthful
I want to do all the things your lungs do so well
I'm gonna bed into you like a cat beds into a beanbag
Turn you inside out to lick you like a crisp packet
Hey!...
The Naked And Famous - "Frayed" All of my dreams
Tear at the seams
Frayed
All over the place
Thought it was good
Everything where it should be
Around me
All that depends
On where it ends
It ends
Did you pretend?
Or maybe not...
