for all of the worldly shame we feel
and how we act and ask for love.
lyrics
missionary's easy when it hurts baby
my visionaries left me in the lurch
guess this isnt quite what you'd call a church
just another temple for the love we try to earn
----------------------------------------------------------
this is not modesty no
it's just my penance
so when i close this quivering sentence
you'll eat my words
this is not modesty just
-----------------------------------------------------------
a passing urge
a passing urge
a passing urge
a passing urge
-----------------------------------------------------------
i wrote this song
for the man i thought i'd be
rich and famous
no family integration
-----------------------------------------------------------
now I'm just / a sliver of it
the internet drugs and fucking
my gender problem's still a privilege
but it was a bad religion
-----------------------------------------------------------
missionary's easy when it hurts baby
my visionaries left me in the lurch
guess this isnt quite what you'd call a church
just another temple for the love we try to earn
------------------------------------------------------------
this is not modesty no
it's just my penance
so when i close this quivering sentence
you'll eat your words
this is not modesty just
------------------------------------------------------------
a passing urge
a passing urge
a passing urge
a passing urge
------------------------------------------------------------
