It promised me a good life, if I followed all its wishes

I never missed a prayer, and I always did the dishes

What's beautiful is good, but what's that blood along the ridges?

What is that for?

Tabernacle

Stones of white preserve the words unspeakable for ages

It's not a place of honor or esteemed deed commemorated

What's left inside is what's evolved from what we have forsaken

Check the black box

Tabernacle

You puke and spit and beat your fists against it

But it's unshaken (Atargatis)

There's nothing left to offer to restore what has been taken

Your body is a temple, but your holy wounds are aching

Leave the fat off

Tabernacle

I can do whatever the fuck I want when I want to

You're only wearing my skin

I can do whatever the fuck I want when I want to

You're only wearing my skin

It's just a night in your life (you're only wearing my skin)

Maybe there's something to take the edge off

It's just the sound of your electric heart (you're only wearing my skin)

Cracklelacklelai, and you will be calm

You can dial 9-1-1 if you need to

I can't put out every fire

You can call the whole damn squad if you want to

I can't put out every fire

You're just a lie in my heart (you're only wearing my skin)

Everybody starts out curious

Is there no king behind these walls? (You're only wearing my skin)

Cracklelacklelai, and I will not fall

I can't put out every fire

Radio tower neck speaks with the accent of my stomach

Early morning birds call with some generator running

A series of simple patterns slowly build themselves into another song

I don't know how it happened

In the false dawn everything is dreamlike and unreal

Somewhere on the periphery is a nightmare I still feel

The fireplace is flickering, black-haired bull is speaking by the bed

You can love again, if you try again

Waves wash up the puzzle pieces of high school dioramas

Gifts for your nephew's birthday bring up scenes of childhood trauma

Magic eye clicks into focus

It's something you'd give your right eye to unsee

Is this the only way forward?

I've called to you a thousand times to take away this cup

But there will be no miracles 'til the ransom's added up

Just tell me what you want from me

Tell me what would make it be enough

You can love again, if you try again

(I've never seen God in my lifetime)

You can love again, if you try again

(Peace in the Glory above)

You can love again, if you try again

(Why is there so little water?)

You can love again, if you try again

(You can love again, if you try again)

You can love again, if you try again

Now you have me as I was born

My breaking heart beats between your horns

What comes next, beloved pet?

I'll be patient waiting for the time to come

To be opened up, helpless and undone

I can't run anymore

I lay me down again to sleep

Another soul must be redeemed

Hidden behind a thousand eyes

A hostage heart, a scrap of light

The naked priest, the introvert

The millionaire, conspirator

Misshapen form, rotten wheat

Like war porn, a constant feed

You can love again, if you try again

You can love

If you try

You can love
