Holy Cross

My baby shot me on a mountain top\nI get my kicks, yeah, from the bottoms up\nAnd all of these people saying they’ve had enough\nWell I don’t think that you’d understand\nI’ve done my fair share of my unfair shit\nThat doesn’t mean you’ll get away with this\nI hid your name upon the quilt I knit\nStill, I don’t think that you’d understand\nIn the basement praying\nSinging, «Jesus, what’s my name? And do willing\nSinners get the same redemption?»\nShe’s a holy cross, it’s one more battle lost\nWell I guess that’s worth the cost of my intentions\nI hurt for all that need a suffering\nA crucifixion of my upbringing\n'Cause being empathetic that’s one thing\nBut I don’t think they’d all understand\nI put abrasions on the hearts I grow\nAnd say they’re better for the things they know\nAnd still, I hate they way it’s come to show\nThat I don’t think that you’d understand\nIn the basement praying\nSinging, «Jesus, what’s my name? And do willing\nSinners get the same redemption?»\nShe’s a holy cross, it’s one more battle I lost\nWell I guess that’s worth the cost of my intentions\nAnother death upon a mountain top\nOur loves are nothing but some real shit luck\nRemember when we used to give a fuck?\nWell I don’t think the lord understands\nAnd why the hell’d it take so long to grow?\nPerhaps we worship all the things we know\nStuck in the landing of your vertigo
