Sugar in the Sacrament Lyrics
what have you done?
you followed footsteps in the dark
and found your faith
left out behind your father’s car
you said, “there’s no one watching over me or over you, it’s always out of reach...”
I'm sinking still right into:
oh my god where are we now?
fractured lives dissolving
like sugar in the sacrament
if it was just one night
then we would be released
tie these lies between our teeth
keep tearing open bodies
"let it bleed"
tonight
where have you gone?
off with the friends you couldn’t keep
your mother’s arms
fill up with all the empty needs
so the saint line up to bring her in,
comfort her and it’s always comforting
when they start to sing,
the same old:
“holy, holy, lift up your dress
feel your body dissolving
like sugar in the sacrament”
"if it was just one night
then you could be redeemed
tie these sins between your teeth
make hollow promises we’ll never keep
tonight."
this is all we’ve ever known of God.
fight with me let me touch you now.
you followed footsteps in the dark
and found your faith
left out behind your father’s car
I'm sinking still right into:
fractured lives dissolving
like sugar in the sacrament
then we would be released
tie these lies between our teeth
keep tearing open bodies
"let it bleed"
tonight
off with the friends you couldn’t keep
your mother’s arms
fill up with all the empty needs
so the saint line up to bring her in,
comfort her and it’s always comforting
when they start to sing,
the same old:
feel your body dissolving
like sugar in the sacrament”
then you could be redeemed
tie these sins between your teeth
make hollow promises we’ll never keep
tonight."
fight with me let me touch you now.

Don't transcript anymore your bad at it. try "Tie THESE (LIES) BETWEEN OUR TEETH keep tearing open (BOTTLES?). and also it's "where have you gone/ WITH ALL THE FRIENDS YOU COULDN'T KEEP" and "HOLY, HOLY, lift up you dress, feel your BODY dissolving like sugar in the sacrament" also sacrament is never plurral. And some other stuff
haha
your mother's arms FILL UP WITH ALL THE EMPTY NEEDS so the SAINTS line up to bring her in
they start to sing, THE SAME OLD
Yes well this guy did a very piss poor job of doing this song, but I hope he fixes it. I just wanted to ask if anyone else gets a major Dying In New Brunswick vibe from this song. Just gives me chills at the end.
I saw Thursday last night and they played this song and it's SUCH an emotional live song. Especially the last few lines, "this is all we've ever known of God, fight with me, let me touch you now." Geoff was just sosososo into it and looked like he was pouring his whole heart into this song.
best song on the CD hands down.....please someone fix the lyrics
Some one post the real lyrics this guy is major douchebag! You hear that? I said douche bag you douche. This song is too beautiful to go on incorrect
here's the correct lyrics from the booklet, and this is one of my favorite songs on the album, its amazing!

'holy holy, lift up your dress feel your body dissolving like sugar in the sacrament
"if it was just one night they you could be redeemed tie these sins between your teeth make hollow promises we'll never keep tonight"
this is all we've ever known of God fight with me let me touch you now
Hey, it is a great song and im sorry, i tried transcribing it from a rip of the myspace stream
so anyway, I think this song is questioning religion and faith as a whole, and possibly asking the age old question "if there's a God, why do good people suffer?"
anyway whatever it means, its a really beautiful song.
