The Bible

Bound book and candle
Murder and greed
These are the things
That bring your love to me
How sweet the sentence
How sweet the lips
How do you expect
The same face that they kiss

It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
You're only a child
And you're reading too late
It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
It's only a child
You should leave your soul to me

Harlots or angels
Celibate priests
Contented romance
Bring your soul to speak
How sweet the flower
How sweet the cake
Even at the risk
Of losing my last break

It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
You're only a child
And you're reading too late
It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
It's only a child
You should leave your soul to me

Blinded by halos
Blind where the fields grow
I'm on my way home
But I'm not afraid

Bound book and candle
Murder and greed
These are the things
That bring your love to me

It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
You're only a child
And you're reading too late
It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
It's only a child
And I need your faith
It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible

You're only a child
And I need your faith
It's only the Bible
It's only the Bible
It's only a child
I need your faith

How long should I wait?
How long should I fake?
How long 'til my feelings will break?
How long should I wait?
How long should I fake?
