[Verse 1]

            
    My lover's

She's the gigg

Knows everybod

Every Sunday's

            
 getting more 

       
bleak
              
A fresh poison

            
 each week
              
'We were born 

     
sick,' you hea

rd them say it
            
    My church 

            
offers no abso

       
lutes
              
She tells me '

              
worship in the

         
 bedroom'
              
The only heave

            
n I'll be sent

      
 to
              
Is when I'm al

             
one with you
              
I was born sic

   
k, but I love 

it

     Command m
