Take Me to Church

I don't wanna love the way I loved before
I don't wanna love that way no more
What've I been writin' love songs for?
I don't wanna write 'em anymore

I don't wanna sing from where I sang before
I don't wanna sing that way no more
What've I've been singin' love songs for?
I don't wanna sing 'em anymore

I don't wanna be that girl no more
I don't wanna cry no more
I don't wanna die no more

So cut me down from this here tree
Cut the rope from off of me
Set me on the floor
I'm the only one I should adore

Oh, take me to church
I've done so many bad things, it hurts
Yeah, take me to church
But not the ones that hurt
'Cause that ain't the truth
And that's not what it's worth

Yeah, take me to church
Oh, take me to church
I've done so many bad things, it hurts
Yeah, get me to church
But not the ones that hurt
'Cause that ain't the truth
And that's not what it's worth

I'm gonna sing songs of lovin' and forgivin'
Songs of eatin' and of drinkin'
Songs of livin', songs of callin' in the night
'Cause songs are like a bolt of light
And love's the only love you should invite

Songs of long and spiteful fails
Songs that won't let you sit still
Songs that mend your broken bones
And don't leave you alone

So get me down from this here tree
Take the rope from off of me
Set me on the floor
I'm the only one I should adore!

Oh, take me to church
I've done so many bad things, it hurts
Yeah, take me to church
But not the ones that hurt
'Cause that ain't the truth
And that's not what it's worth

Yeah, take me to church
Oh, take me to church
I've done so many bad things, it hurts
Yeah, get me to church
But not the ones that hurt
'Cause that ain't the truth
And that's not what it's worth
