Kneeling before the carnal demon machine   On hands and knees she shallows divinity   Begging for forgiveness, the blessing of a kiss   The essence of denial, the pleasure of her sin      Father please embrace me   My lusts I lay unto thee   Free me from temptation   May you scourge this skin with the seeds of salvation      She's crying beneath an image   An image of a hundred thorns   Rivers that calm, rivers that lie   Thorns like nails driven into her flesh   Ecstacy nailed to the cross      Holy water pouring on my breasts   On hands and knees I shallow divinity   A picture that calms, a picture that lies   I'm drowning in the face of Jesus Christ
