My body and blood, Lord My soul and my skin I'm not sure what they're there for But I know where they've been
I'm waking up with bruises I don't recognize I think I died last night And in a strange twist of fate I woke up in the same tired state as I do every day I don't know why I still drink I think I'm starting to outgrow regretting things that I can barely remember But one way or another, I can't seem to put this sacrifice to rest
My body and blood, Lord My soul and my skin I'm not sure what they're there for But I know where they've been And I know what these eyes have seen is easily forgotten And every day goes by And everything dies eventually But nothing happens to the ghost
I woke up in the strangest place I've got no coat and it's cold but I walk home Retracing faces and footprints that followed me to your bed I'd like to stay but I run instead I left no number, no proof that I exist Not that you'll need it You could see the signs of trouble on my skin I woke up shaking like I always do And I just know I'm gonna scare you away
My body and blood, Lord My soul and my skin I'm not sure what they're there for But I know where they've been And I know what these eyes have seen is easily forgotten And every day goes by And everything dies eventually But nothing happens to the ghost
Holy ghost You still haunt the vacant halls in my bones It's not that I need you I just don't have time to move on Will fear of God send me to heaven Or am I gonna need something more? 'Cause I've been terrified from the beginning I just want to know what I should prepare for But the bible hasn't given me comfort I was baptized on a bedroom floor Where I was touched by something other than angels And I just can't forget anymore Will fear of God send me to heaven Or am I gonna need something more? 'Cause I've been terrified from the beginning I just want to know what I should prepare for But the bible hasn't given me comfort I was baptized on a bedroom floor Where I taught myself this feeling was my fault And I don't want to feel the shame anymore
My body and blood, Lord (My body and blood) My soul and my skin (My soul and my skin) I'm not sure what they're there for (There's still blood on my hands) But I know where they've been (I'm still counting these sins) And I know what these eyes have seen is easily forgotten (My body and blood) And every day goes by (My soul and my skin) And everything dies eventually (I'm not scared of the ghosts) But nothing happens to the ghost ('Cause I know where they've been I know where they've been)
