[Verse 1]
They said that God creates his children in the palm of his hand
That I'm created in his image and this isn't what he had planned
To keep my heart full of love, say I'm not doing it right
The holy water don't sting, I should be burning in the light
[Pre-Chorus]
If my body is a temple, why can't I renovate?
Feels like my chest is made of plaster and underneath this shame
[Chorus]
And then the church bell scream, that sin has pierced my lungs
And now the Catholic greed took all my mother's love
And if the devil's got me hostage, you could just let go
'Cause I'm not sick, I'm tired and scared of dying alone
[Bridge]
(Whoa, ah)
[Verse 2]
Was I a child or a sinner burdened in my faith?
They'll wash their guilt away with wine, but all my bruises will stay
An exorcism or lobotomy might save me from hell
If I could give you what you want, I'd be your daughter in the ground
[Chorus]
And then the church bell scream, your son is devil spawn
'Cause only in misery, can I be a child of God
If I'm unnatural, I'm impure, I've lived through hell, but you're unsure
If I'm a mortal worthy of love, or if my rights should be taken from me?
