Hozier I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your My lover's got humor knife She's the giggle at a funeral Offer me that deathless death Knows everybody's disapproval Good God, let me give you my life I should've worshiped her sooner If the Heavens ever did speak No masters or kings when the ritual begins She is the last true mouthpiece There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle Every Sunday's getting more bleak sin A fresh poison each week In the madness and soil of that sad earthly "We were born sick", you heard them say it scene My church offers no absolutes Only then I am human She tells me 'worship in the bedroom' Only then I am clean The only heaven I'll be sent to Amen, Amen, Amen Is when I'm alone with you I was born sick, but I love it Take me to church Command me to be well I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies Amen, Amen, Amen I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Take me to church Offer me that deathless death I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies Good God, let me give you my life I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Take me to church Offer me that deathless death I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies Good God, let me give you my life I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Take me to church Offer me that deathless death I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies Good God, let me give you my life 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 times My lover's the sunlight To keep the Goddess on my side She demands a sacrifice To 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 and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life You are, the only exception The Only Exception You are, the only exception Paramore You are, the only exception You are, the only exception When I was younger And I'm on my way to believing I saw my daddy cry Oh, and I'm on my way to believing. And curse at the wind He broke his own heart And I watched As he tried to reassemble it And my momma swore That she would never let herself forget And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love If it does not exist, but darlin' You are, the only exception You are, the only exception You are, the only exception You are, the only exception Maybe I know, somewhere Deep in my soul That love never lasts And we've got to find other ways To make it alone But keep a straight face And I've always lived like this Keeping a comfortable, distance And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content With loneliness Because none of it was ever worth the risk But, you are, the only exception You are, the only exception You are, the only exception You are, the only exception I've got a tight grip on reality But I can't let go of what's in front of me here I know your leaving in the morning, when you wake up Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, oh You are, the only exception You are, the only exception You are, the only exception You are, the only exception Hasta la raíz Sigo cruzando ríos Andando selvas Amando el sol Cada día sigo sacando espinas De lo profundo del corazón En la noche sigo encendiendo sueños Para limpiar con el humo sagrado cada recuerdo Cuando escriba tu nombre En la arena blanca con fondo azul Cuando mire el cielo en la forma cruel de una nube gris Aparezcas tú Una tarde suba una alta loma Mire el pasado Sabrás que no te he olvidado Yo te llevo dentro, hasta la raíz Y por más que crezca, vas a estar aquí Aunque yo me oculte tras la montaña Y encuentre un campo lleno de caña No habrá manera, mi rayo de luna Que tú te vayas Pienso que cada instante sobrevivido al caminar Y cada segundo de incertidumbre Cada momento de no saber Son la clave exacta de este tejido Que ando cargando bajo la piel Así te protejo Aquí sigues dentro Yo te llevo dentro, hasta la raíz Y por más que crezca, vas a estar aquí Aunque yo me oculte tras la montaña Y encuentre un campo lleno de caña No habrá manera, mi rayo de luna Que tú te vayas, que tu te vayas Yo te llevo dentro, hasta la raíz Y por más que crezca, vas a estar aquí Aunque yo me oculte tras la montaña Y encuentre un campo lleno de caña No habrá manera, mi rayo de luna Que tú te vayas, que tu te vayas Yo te llevo dentro, hasta la raíz Y por más que crezca, vas a estar aquí Aunque yo me oculte tras la montaña Y encuentre un campo lleno de caña No habrá manera, mi rayo de luna Que tú te vayas Oh oh Lost on You Is that lost on you? LP Oh oh, oh oh When you get older, plainer, saner Bab, is that lost on you? When you remember all the danger we came Is that lost on you? from Let's raise a glass or two Burning like embers, falling, tender To all the things I've lost on you Long before the days of no surrender Oh oh Years ago and well you know Tell me are they lost on you? Smoke 'em if you got 'em Oh oh 'Cause it's going down Just that you cold cut me loose All I ever wanted was you Oh oh I'll never get to heaven After everything I've lost on you 'Cause I don't know how Is that lost on you? Is that lost on you? Let's raise a glass or two To all the things I've lost on you Oh oh Tell me are they lost on you? Oh oh Just that you could cut me loose Oh oh After everything I've lost on you Is that lost on you? Oh oh Is that lost on you? Oh oh Baby, is that lost on you? Is that lost on you? Wishing I could see the machinations Understand the toil of expectations in your mind Hold me like you never lost your patience Tell me that you love me more than hate me all the time And you're still mine So smoke 'em if you've got 'em 'Cause it's going down All I ever wanted was you Let's take a drink of heaven This can turn around Let's raise a glass or two To all the things I've lost on you Oh oh Tell me are they lost on you? Oh oh Just that you could cut me loose Oh oh After everything I've lost on you Is that lost on you?
