Velvet Jesus

Empty bottles on my nightstand Make new friends day by day Collecting dust and fingerprints It's communion in my own way I pray to whoever's listening They probably couldn't give a damn At least they listen to the cries of A sacrificial lamb This velvet Jesus hangs there Judging the moves I make He Says I can walk on water But I'm drowning in mistakes I know the psalms like my own palms Sing it loud and make them proud The saints of sins and vinyl record spins Keep me safe in my own shroud Still, I live in fear of falling Out of grace just to find That is the only revelation Is not what we've redefined This velvet Jesus hangs there Judging the moves I make He Says I can walk on water But I'm drowning in mistakes This velvet Jesus hangs there Judging the moves I make He Says I can walk on water But I'm drowning in mistakes
