Sacrilegious Lyrics

I'm feeling sacrilegious, put your arms around me
I'll stab you in the back
You'll never see a skeleton Christ
I'll be the one in Bible black

You should have treated your saviors better
With the tombs that you left behind
Do you think that coffins gossip
And all of your ghosts are blind?

Are you here for the resurrection?
How deep did you dig my grave?

Let's get evil, I'm feeling sacrilegious
Let's get evil, I'm feeling sacrilegious

You can climb to the top of my horns
But make sure that you don't look down
Don't spit in the face of God
When you're trying to wear his crown

Are you here for the resurrection?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"coming back, coming back baby" is reminiscent of "superstar, superfuck baby" from Mister Superstar. I wonder if it's a purposeful allusion to draw a lyrical / meaningful parallel somehow, or just a case of a musician pulling similar musical tricks from his bag.
