Deliver Me

I don't believe in heaven in the winter
I don't believe in winter in the fall
I beat my temples just to see them splinter
I tear the wings off flies just to see them crawling down

Down through the gravel and the mud
Where a rope can't knot and the soap can't sud
Saint Peter's on a smoke break, the Devil's dressed in silk
And you always eat the mother after drinking her milk

I don't believe my I's I ever dotted
I don't believe my T's I ever crossed
I stick it in because I see it slotted
I kick it in the ribs to have it turn and then tossing down

Down through the weeds and the rain
Where a man can't lie and a woman can't faint
Saint Peter's on a smoke break, the Devil's dressed in silk
And you always eat the mother after drinking her milk

Deliver me
Doctor, deliver me
Doctor, deliver me from this world

I don't believe in happily or in after
I don't believe in dreams I can't recall
I never got invited to the after
I never got why sinners never see themselves falling down

Down through the fire and the smoke
Where a leg can't set and an egg can't yoke
Saint Peter's on a smoke break, the Devil's dressed in silk
And you always eat the mother after drinking her milk

Deliver me
Doctor, deliver me
Doctor, deliver me from this world
Deliver me
Deliver me from this world
