Lord Who Lyrics

Everybody loves a lie

Rest your hands on the back of my hips

I don't know how to pray

All these words in my head

I don't know what to say

That hasn't already been said

The sour taste of dying faster

There is nothing by design

A God who makes slaves and masters

How many times you cross the line

Confessions don't wipe the slate

The blood drips, always alive

Imagine yourself at the pearly gates

What did you give up to survive

Raise your palms to the sky

Mercy means you give a shit

Bow your head, shut your eyes

Beg forgiveness for all of it

Lord who, Lord who

Who decides, who decides

Who lives Who lives

Who dies who dies

Lord why Lord why

Why the mercy, why the mercy

Lord when it's

Lord when it's all a lie

Your alter ego dressed in black

Face a blur in the shadow

Plays the piano in the back

I told the truth; I had to

Mesmerized by quarter notes

Deified the slender keys

I burned all the letters you wrote

The only way to set you free

When we meet face to face

What you won't anticipate

Who stepped in, took your place

Everything you abdicate

Should I believe forever

One day this gets better

That's not gonna happen ever

That's why I burned yr letters

Lord who, Lord who

Who decides, who decides

Who lives Who lives

Who dies who dies

Lord why Lord why

Why the mercy, why the mercy

Lord when it's

Lord when it's all a lie

Rest yr palm on the holy book

Swear to fuck on your name

Give back everything you took

Fair enough, fair game

I'm here to close that chapter

Once and for all

I'm not waiting for the rapture

This is not the final call

Lord who, Lord who

Who decides, who decides

Who lives Who lives

Who dies who dies

Lord why Lord why

Why the mercy, why the mercy

Lord when it's

Lord when it's all a lie
