Hozier – Take Me to Church Lyrics 9 years ago
@[PollyKnotswise:1152]
I believe that what you say about love is very true, and the song is nicely constructed (even beautiful). However, the music video is one of the primary reasons people believe this song is about homosexuality, and simply infer that the lyrics mean that. It could very well be, I'm not going to debate that, But: "Using the Church (which is against homosexuality) as a metaphor for making love is just genius. Absolutely fan-fucking-tastic.", this turns the church into the scapegoat for peoples own biased aggression. Though the church upholds that a romantic relationship can only exist between a man and woman, i have read no scripture that saids you must kill, harm or discriminate someone who sins in general. (except maybe the original 10 commandments) If i am wrong about something, please inform me what, and why.
