[Verse 1]

Your sovereign self’s behind

The elm trees and God’s strange designs

And even those pirouettes of yours

You twirl and people forget the score

[Refrain]

I’ll survive my indecision

But I won’t lose these inhibitions

Those catechisms that pierced my mind

I’ll give it all up when it’s due time

[Chorus]

Keep my eyes on the prize

Bathed in the sighs of ennui

Drink from the silver chalice

But don’t expect to be redeemed

[Post-Chorus]

If only you could see

Everything you need to be

[Verse 2]

Hold me, what you told me

About myself was said too early

Now I’m lost in a trance

In a city where no one throws you a glance

[Refrain]

I’ll survive my indecision

But I won’t lose these inhibitions

Those catechisms that pierced my mind

I’ll give it up when it’s due time

[Bridge]

This love will not

Harm me, disarm me

This love will not

Harm me, disarm me

Jesus, I need a weapon

Jesus, I need a weapon

[Chorus]

Keep my eyes on the prize

Bathed in the sighs of ennui

Drink from the silver chalice

But don’t expect to be redeemed

[Post-Chorus]

If only you could see

Everything you need to be
