Smile, wave
Convince the sanctuary, our charade
Though you're the object of my deepest rage

Just counterfeit this holiness for me
And everything will be OK


My sweet one
You tell no lies
The greatest reason to be despised


But we must pretend
Your broken wrist

Just happened when you fell off your bike

So this is

The reason
The sanctuary hums
God save us

God save us
From your chosen ones


Smile, wave
Protect his pulpit from all suffering
He'll make celebrity the end game

So much more valuable than family
Not even violence can betray...


As long as
You keep your lips
Locked up til the end of this age


And even
If you won't

It's your word up against what he'll say

Cry, Girl

Become the wails of victims unheard
Your tears have given you the calm nerve
So if they're asking you to hide your bane

You just keep screaming to the grave

You'll be

The reason
The helpless celebrate
He takes us

He takes us
From our violent shame
