Violent lyrics:
My lover's got humor
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshiped her sooner
If the Heavens ever did speak
She is the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week
'We were born sick,' you heard them say it
My church offers no absolution
She tells me, 'Worship in the bedroom'
The only heaven I'll be sent to
Is when I'm alone with you
I was born sick,
But I love it
Command me to be well
Amen. Amen. Amen
Chorus x2
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
If I'm a pagan of the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the Goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
To drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
Chorus x2
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
No masters or kings
When the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
Amen. Amen. Amen
Chorus x2
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
my opinion:
I tend to agree that violent lyrics make people more violent because, the song gives you a kind of energy and inlfuence, and altough you dont realize, sometimes you start being angry for no reason, yelling to people, but also there is people that dont have any reaction, and they just listen to the song because they like the rythm or the band.. or maybe just because for fashion. In conclusion i think that the lyrics do affect the person, and how it reacts, we should avoid listening to many violent song because at some point it can influence in our behavior or sense of humor. violent lyrics also help when we want to let out the anger and some negative feelings. But i dont think they should be banned, its to extreme.
this song talks about the violence in the religion, how some integrants of the religion sometimes doesn´t accept everybody, or reject you if you have different thoughts, that is a kind of psycological violence.
