Baptism Lyrics

Hold my head underwater
Take a breath for the father
Hold your mouth, you can't stop breathing
The chronicles were so misleading

This is your baptism
And you can't forgive them
This is your baptism
And you can't forgive them

Hold my head underwater
Take a breath for the father
Hold your mouth, you can't stop breathing
The chronicles were so misleading

This is your baptism
And you can't forgive them
This is your baptism
And you can't forgive them

i love the fact the google ads are advertising actual baptism on this page. Christianity - endorsed by crystal castles.

I need to hear a decent recording of this, i swear it is the best song they have ever made

The album lyrics are:

Hold my head underwater, take a breath for the father, Learn to love lessons repeating, the Chronicles are so misleading.

This is your baptism, and you can't forgive them, this is your baptism, and you can't forgive them.

The new ablum is AMAZING!!! Each song has it's own amazing qualities and I absolutely LOVE every single song :D

This is what I hear in the recorded version...

Hold my head underwater Do my best for another Hold your breath, you can't stop breathing Its only god who's stopped believing

Then in the chorus I can't help but hear "THIS IS YOUR POTATO!"

Hehe, any thoughts? I also found a pretty good video of this live on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM-0406p8VQ

This is what I hear:

In my midst like we've been doing Ignoring us by the ocean I can see it One last I can touch it, I can see it

Oh my god I'm not watching

No, we won't stop breathing I'm sure we'll make a deal

This is your baptism And you can't forgive them

We're in now Feels great We're touching what is or was I can see it I can keep believing I can touch it, I can see it

etc

She also whispers a lot in this song

www.myspace.com/throughthehosiery - the version of Baptism on there is what I used
