歌曲歌詞
Sing with me child as my ears are bleeding
The dreams that have now seemed so fleeting
Still your cradle with no effort sways
Where this monochromatic record is played
And I'll purse my lips and blow kisses goodbye
It's so easy if you never ask yourself why
My lungs will contract and give up a brief sigh
Shall we say an appendage has finally died
Or is it easier to go on with a smile
With faltering ease and talk for a while
Words fall from your mouth and are lost on the floor
And I can't go on singing anymore
Oh the tale you tell
Oh the web that you've spun
And the salt that was sprinkled on the things you have done
Makes the anger oh so sweet
Makes the world fall at your feet
Makes the pity that you pour over your head quite a treat
So go ahead and cry
And go ahead and lie
Begin every sentence that you vomit with I
And then Jesus will forgive you
But oh what can I do
To see if there's enough forgiveness left for me
But in all of Israel
Father did you see someone who seeks himself so perfectly
The pharisees would be content at the sight of me
The snakes would wrap around me and we'd dance across the sea
To ridicule you there and to spit upon your face
Unsheathe this wicked tongue
And invite disgrace
Isn't that the goal that I've always pursued
While I beg you lord to be used for you
Under a light in Bethlehem
I was sifting through the sand
The saline burned my eyes
I was looking for your hand
I gave up on myself
And left this pride disarmed
I cried out I'm alone
And found myself in your arms
Rest in me oh my love
I have loved you before the world began
Rest in me oh my love
You will never to wander too far to reach my hand
Did they not murder you
Did they not see you die
Hanging on a tree as the life had left your eyes
Did we not torture you
Smiling as you died
Or is it that you killed death itself
And now you are alive
I won't find you there lying with yourself
Sleep under a rock until your mouth is full of insects
I won't look for you praying to your ceiling
Swallow every snake and sing of your mistakes
Sing of your mistakes
Sing of your mistakes
Sing of your mistakes
Put lipstick on your mirror
Cry into your hands
