Steve Vai - Sex Religion Lyrics
Repent, repent, repent ye sinnersWhat do you think you got, when you thought you had a lotBut all your feelings are dead?And who do you think you are, when youre reaching for the starsBut all your feelings are dead?Must you make a decision, between sex and religionWhy cant you love God in your bed?Chorus:Well, jesus christ is in your bed tonight, to bring you back from the deadHow are you gonna fight for what you think is rightIf all your feelings are dead?And what can you know of love, from the eyes of a child to the heavens aboveWhen all your feelings are dead?Its a tragic condition, sex and religion, makin a manic mess in your head(chorus)Jesus christ, or any son of the heatless lightWhen all your feelings are deadResurrection!I raise my hands high up into the airGet down on my knees and start-a-prayinWhen love walks in, my body beginsI feel my promised land comin, but I gotta go to hell nowAnd those creatures, evangelist preachersThe ones that take money, for the promise of hopeWell, they are dangerous, Im not dangerousBrain washing us, and were not gonna take it(solo)I just wanna know, oh, lord, how it is soHow is it that you can take my sins away?Oh, lord tell me, so I can see the light againI dont think anybody can take my sins awayHow can the truth be known, if we got little black holes in our soulsAnd all our feelings are dead?Are we imprisoned by sex and religionOr is God the one thats trapped in our mess?(chorus)Jesus christ, or any son of the heatless lightTo bring you back from the deadSo remember now folks, when you kneel to prayBlow a little kiss to the hypocritesGood God knows when you turn the other cheekWhich direction youre pointing it[holy shit. holy jesus christ, I hurt your brain, hah, great god, steve, ohMy fingers are numb, right nowYeah, theyre numbCan I deprive my brain of oxygen? ]
