[00:00.00]Take Me to Church - Us The Duo
[00:00.55]Lyrics by:Andrew Hozier-Byrne
[00:01.10]Composed by:Andrew Hozier-Byrne
[00:01.66]My lover's got humor
[00:04.05]She's the giggle at a funeral
[00:06.54]Knows everybody's disapproval
[00:09.13]I should've worshiped her sooner
[00:11.88]If the heavens ever did speak
[00:14.48]She's the last true mouthpiece
[00:17.06]Every sunday's getting more bleak
[00:19.59]A fresh poison each week
[00:22.42]We were born sick you heard them say it
[00:27.87]My church offers no absolutes
[00:30.44]She tells me worship in the bedroom
[00:32.89]The only heaven I'll be sent to
[00:35.50]Is when I'm alone with you
[00:38.19]I was born sick but I love it
[00:41.55]Command me to be well
[00:45.09]A- amen amen amen
[00:55.52]Take me to church
[00:57.02]I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
[01:00.35]I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
[01:03.87]Offer me that deathless death
[01:06.60]Good God let me give you my life
[01:09.53]Take me to church
[01:10.95]I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
[01:14.41]I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
[01:17.83]Offer me that deathless death
[01:20.64]Good God let me give you my life
[01:24.87]If I'm a pagan of the good times
[01:27.85]My lover's the sunlight
[01:30.36]To keep the goddess on my side
[01:32.90]She demands a sacrifice
[01:35.50]Drain the whole sea
[01:37.15]Get something shiny
[01:38.95]Something meaty for the main course
[01:41.77]That's a fine looking high horse
[01:44.25]What you got in the stable
[01:46.80]We've a lot of starving faithful
[01:49.61]That looks tasty
[01:51.40]That looks plenty
[01:53.12]This is hungry work
[01:55.25]Take me to church
[01:56.97]I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
[02:00.29]I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
[02:03.60]Offer me my deathless death
[02:06.52]Good God let me give you my life
[02:09.49]Take me to church
[02:11.03]I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
[02:14.42]I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
[02:17.72]Offer me my deathless death
[02:20.61]Good God let me give you my life
[02:25.25]No masters or kings when the ritual begins
[02:31.23]There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
[02:38.29]In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
[02:45.07]Only then I am human
[02:48.99]Only then I am clean
[02:54.17]Oh oh amen amen amen
[03:08.81]Take me to church
[03:10.13]I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
[03:13.54]I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
[03:16.93]Offer me that deathless death
[03:19.72]Good God let me give you my life
[03:22.84]Take me to church
[03:24.25]I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
[03:27.62]I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
[03:30.99]Offer me that deathless death
[03:33.70]Good God let me give you my life
