Pretend prayer
Pretend care
Makes everything seem so fair

These perfect abattoirs
These perfect actors
These perfect abattoirs


Only a god can bruise
Only a god can soothe

Only a god reserves the right
To forgive those that revile him
Only a god can bruise

Only a god can soothe
Only a god reserves the right
To forgive those that revile him


Oh, such love
Sweet stimulus

PG certificate and cuts unfocused
Stitches and wounds
Doctored divinity

So much love there's blind affinity

Only a god can bruise

Only a god can soothe
Only a god reserves the right
To forgive those that revile him

Only a god can bruise
Only a god can soothe
Only a god reserves the right

To forgive those that revile him
