Church or State Lyrics
did i learn to hate
from church or state
who chose for me, my palette
who knows, who cares
i keep on thinking
should i give up drinking
will i wake up breathing tomorrow
but every moment foments
till throwing it in
where i'm going
no one will follow
i burn my candle
my soul, i sell
what is money
i can't tell
an empty shell
which fasting or feasting
will pass like a bee sting
in rash and the riesling i swallow
and every moment
ferments till throwing up in
the closest thing
at hand and hollow
going away
for the evening
another day
dead and gone
no mind
your arms around me
feel safe
second to none
so dull
pointless
i lose focus
and pretend not to notice
from church or state
who chose for me, my palette
who knows, who cares
should i give up drinking
will i wake up breathing tomorrow
but every moment foments
till throwing it in
where i'm going
no one will follow
my soul, i sell
what is money
i can't tell
an empty shell
will pass like a bee sting
in rash and the riesling i swallow
and every moment
ferments till throwing up in
the closest thing
at hand and hollow
for the evening
another day
dead and gone
your arms around me
feel safe
second to none
pointless
i lose focus
and pretend not to notice
