“Lovegod” is the fourth track on Sarah Kinsley’s Ascension EP.

[Verse 1]
Now I see you, for who you are
Singin' holy praises to an indifferent god
Now I want to, just open my heart
But I am a-without someone, in that regard
So I go where they say, lovers go
It's a dark room in a bar, it's a drink by my side
And finally someone says, "You look lonely tonight"
And the prick isn't wrong, but he just says it to be nice
[Chorus]
Lovegod
Send me someone, send me anyone to close the mountain inside
Lovegod
Send me someone, send me anyone to kiss away the forces of my mind
[Post-Chorus]
Walking into the sun with my eyes
(Delay the feeling, delay the feeling, delay the feeling)
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
So I'll give the prick a chance, and I'll stare into his eyes
His lips don't say it, but I know it, they are yearning to be mine
And I feel the moment rising, we are surely leaning in
And it feels just like a dream, because I wake up
Kissing a vision
[Chorus]
Lovegod
Send me someone, send me anyone to close the mountain inside
Lovegod
Send me someone, send me anyone to kiss away the forces of my mind
[Post-Chorus]
Walking into the sun with my eyes
(Delay the feeling, delay the feeling, delay the feeling)
[Outro]
Walking into the sun with my eyes
(Delay the feeling, delay the feeling, delay the feeling)

“Lovegod” is the most devious I think I’ve been in my writing, My own “lovegod” is a perfect lover, an answer to a prayer, an antidote for romantic pessimism. Where can one find love these days? Why do we need it? Why do I find myself begging for some spiritual deliverance?
