Straining your eyes for devils
Prophets to share the blame
You've been searching far and wide
For a saviour to call your king
Old and jealous gods to mend your wounds and forgive your sins
So lash your back while you sing your favorite f*cking hymns

Spiritual masochist, holy flagellate
Straining your eyes for devils
A prophet to share the blame
You've been searching far and wide
For a saviour to call your king
Spiritual masochist, holy flagellate
Spiritual masochist, holy flagellate
Straining your eyes with doubt
No prophets to share the blame
You've found your f*cking lies
An empty throne with no king
No love from gods to mend your wounds
To forgive your f*cking sins
So keep lashing your back while you sing your favorite f*cking hymns
