Creature

Call me preacher and feed all of your sin to me
I'll call you teacher though you could learn some things from me
Any wanting only ever goes so deep and
I mostly only want you when you want to go to sleep

Turn us over and look into our face anew
Live in clover and tarnish supple shades of blue
It might seem i'm sentimental but i'm not
I am only sentimental when i know i can't be caught

Overindulgent but with a brilliant dismay
Seeking atonement but only as a game we play
Any living only ever lasts so long and
I'm mostly only living when we're doing something wrong

There's no jewish preachers
Though i'm damning and redeeming you
Call me creature, for i hunger and i scream with you
Any wanting's only ever so profound and
I mostly only want you when there's no one else around
