Night Of Long Knives by In Pieces Lyrics
I still remember all the pews, all the books lined up
You looked beautiful and pious, but of course, I'm biased
But don't hate me for not raising my voice
After all, you don't believe I had a choice
We waited decades for god to sanctify his secular faith, but we waited in vain
This was a cruel religion, a cruel god for a cruel world
And don't pretend that you're upset; after all, you spared no expense
The whole universe of love collapses
And all my wishes for grace were just a waste of my time
But I will keep waiting for love to find me
And not give in to you earth-as-heaven...
As tempting as it is
You looked beautiful and pious, but of course, I'm biased
But don't hate me for not raising my voice
After all, you don't believe I had a choice
We waited decades for god to sanctify his secular faith, but we waited in vain
This was a cruel religion, a cruel god for a cruel world
And don't pretend that you're upset; after all, you spared no expense
The whole universe of love collapses
And all my wishes for grace were just a waste of my time
But I will keep waiting for love to find me
And not give in to you earth-as-heaven...
As tempting as it is
