[Verse 1]
The gospel distorted
It leaves my blood running cold
But still they say
I`m rigging the ritual

[Chorus]
I never said that I was giving blood for the unbelievers
Bleedin` out like a devil in disguise
They shot a hole in the parachute
`Cause I`d rather feel alive

[Verse 2]
It`s so convoluted
They`re just trepanning for gold
May they rest in peace
`Cause they`re fucking dead to me
Well, there`s your eulogy
The water`s polluted
My feathers caught in the spill
Nobody said that it would be safe up here

[Chorus]
I never said that I was giving blood for the unbelievers
Bleedin` out like a devil in disguise
They shot a hole in the parachute
`Cause I`d rather feel alive



[Post-Chorus]
Your salvation`s a letdown, ooh
Oh, I`m sorry that I`d rather feel
I`d rather feel alive

[Bridge]
It leaves a mark on the mind
It weaves a web in the background silently
No time to spare, no sign of the exit wound, God, help me
There`s no drying off once you`re soaked right down to the bone hopefully
Somebody thinks of me in the aftermath, woe is me
It leaves a mark on the mind
It weaves a web in the background silently
No time to spare, no sign of the exit wound, God, help me
There`s no drying off once you`re soaked right down to the bone hopefully
Somebody thinks of me in the aftermath, woe is me
Woe is me
I`m so sorry, I`m so sorry

[Chorus]
I never said that I was giving blood for the unbelievers
Bleedin` out like a devil in disguise
They shot a hole in the parachute
`Cause I`d rather feel alive

[Post-Chorus]
Your salvation`s a letdown, ooh
Oh, I`m sorry that I`d rather feel
I`d rather feel alive
