This Town
Dirty looks from the neighbors
There's dark clouds in the sky
Moving in to a sacred space
And I'm on borrowed time
Can't help but feel wanted
But not the friendly kind
I sense a reckoning is brewing
And I'm the reason why
I walked by the church on a moonlight night
Where they preached a message on sacrifice
Nothing I haven't heard a thousand times
They said their prayers performed last rites
On a healthy couple dressed in white
I must not get the liturgy
Thought that custom was
For the soon deceased
At the center of town
A Christmas tree with no branches on
Surrounded by a mile of straw
They must be going avant garde
I think they're throwing a party
Unlike one I've ever seen
Weird way to welcome a stranger
With arms full of kerosene
They brought me to church
On a special night
And again preached on sacrifice
But nothing I hadn't heard the last time
They said their prayers performed last rites
As they clothed me in a ghostly white
I must not get the liturgy
I have never been more healthy
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
Ooohah
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
Ooh
So take me to church and drag me around
Tell me my sins that forfeit my crown
A little less weight to hold me down
Woah
You pray for my soul but condemn me to hell
Then break my body and you might as well
Bring me a drink while im drowned
I don't think I'm right for this town
There's dark clouds in the sky
Moving in to a sacred space
And I'm on borrowed time
Can't help but feel wanted
But not the friendly kind
I sense a reckoning is brewing
And I'm the reason why
I walked by the church on a moonlight night
Where they preached a message on sacrifice
Nothing I haven't heard a thousand times
They said their prayers performed last rites
On a healthy couple dressed in white
I must not get the liturgy
Thought that custom was
For the soon deceased
At the center of town
A Christmas tree with no branches on
Surrounded by a mile of straw
They must be going avant garde
I think they're throwing a party
Unlike one I've ever seen
Weird way to welcome a stranger
With arms full of kerosene
They brought me to church
On a special night
And again preached on sacrifice
But nothing I hadn't heard the last time
They said their prayers performed last rites
As they clothed me in a ghostly white
I must not get the liturgy
I have never been more healthy
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
Ooohah
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
You gave me quite the warm welcome
Steak and flames well done
Baked to perfection
Ooh

Tell me my sins that forfeit my crown

Woah

Then break my body and you might as well
Bring me a drink while im drowned
I don't think I'm right for this town
