While My Guitar Gently Tells You Lies and Chats Up Your Sister
Like a bullet from a gun, bleeding sparks on the fly
Threading through the atmosphere, suturing the sky
I had all this blood and so I wrote you this letter
While my guitar gently tells you lies and chats up your sister
Yeah, buy the ticket and take the ride
You want to go to heaven but you don't want to die
I thought I loved you but it turns out I lied
We all want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
I spend each day with a small knife
Paring little pieces of my life
And tossing little bits at the feet of the Savior
While my guitar gently tells you lies and chats up your sister
God walked out in the garden, called Adam by his name
But he refused to answer, cause he was naked and ashamed, boys
He was naked and ashamed
You buy the ticket and take the ride
You want to go to heaven but you don't want to die
I thought I loved you but it turns out I lied
We all want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
A rat bastard beats inside my chest cavity
He is traitorous to the core
He is a lecherous, conniving, backstabbing deceiver
He has tasted blood and he's thirsty for more
Deep in my heart there are traces of you
But my heart is still at war
You buy the ticket and take the ride
You want to go to heaven but you don't want to die
I thought I loved you but it turns out I lied
We all want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
We want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
Threading through the atmosphere, suturing the sky
I had all this blood and so I wrote you this letter
While my guitar gently tells you lies and chats up your sister
Yeah, buy the ticket and take the ride
You want to go to heaven but you don't want to die
I thought I loved you but it turns out I lied
We all want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
I spend each day with a small knife
Paring little pieces of my life
And tossing little bits at the feet of the Savior
While my guitar gently tells you lies and chats up your sister
God walked out in the garden, called Adam by his name
But he refused to answer, cause he was naked and ashamed, boys
He was naked and ashamed
You buy the ticket and take the ride
You want to go to heaven but you don't want to die
I thought I loved you but it turns out I lied
We all want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
A rat bastard beats inside my chest cavity
He is traitorous to the core
He is a lecherous, conniving, backstabbing deceiver
He has tasted blood and he's thirsty for more
Deep in my heart there are traces of you
But my heart is still at war
You buy the ticket and take the ride
You want to go to heaven but you don't want to die
I thought I loved you but it turns out I lied
We all want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
We want to go to heaven but we don't want to die
