sunday school - ninefingers lyrics

ya’ll ready to go to sunday school
what’s the first thing they do at sunday school anyway
i’ve never actually been there before
i bet they start by singing

every time i see your face i’m filled with joy
you make me want to sing a song and fill my voice with love
cause i’m reminded that there’s beauty here
and i find it so easy to see when you’re near
i know that you’re committed to the life you chose
to feed love to gods children and then help it grow
and i have faith in your work and your dreams and goals
so i’ve been trying to let go my flow, surrender and give up control
but i’d be lying if i said that i didn’t love you still
and i’d be blind if i couldn’t see that you still love me too
why do we pretend we only want to be just friends
when our relationship transcends these walls we never should have built
and i’d be lying if i said that i didn’t dream of you
though i’ve been trying to move on, it doesn’t ever work
all these other lovers just uncovered what i tried to hide
i buried this love deep inside, like peter i denied three times

that every time i see your face i start to glow
that joy runs through my body till it overflows
i think about a future and i want to grow
so that i can be the one to help you build a home
i know that you’re afraid, you think that i distract
from your mission as a christian if you grow attached
but i will be supportive of your dreams and goals
and step into the background and give up control

to god cause i’d be lying if i said he didn’t lead me here
he’s filled with love for you, he always whispers in my ear
but it’s still hard on me cause his voice isn’t always clear
and i feel f*cking stupid every time you go and disappear
yes i still curse because i’ve always had a love for words
i don’t discriminate when emphasizing nouns and verbs
in fact i don’t discriminate at all and that will never change
i’ve been holding back because i’m worried church has hate ingrained
and if i walk through those doors you all should know that i will speak the truth
cause they’ve been bringing shame upon his name and there is no excuse
love your neighbors, feed the poor, and heal the sick, he’s very clear
but they’re too busy worshiping these charlatans and profiteers
i know that i’m not blameless, i’ve been selfish, filled with arrogance
thought if i found fame that i could build on my inheritance
look i’ve learned the errors of my ways, that i am not so strong
and i can’t save a single soul from sadness when i’m on my own

not even my own, look how i wilt when i’m alone
we’re meant to love each other, that is how you build a home
in you i see my equal, we just need that cornerstone
to help us build a strong foundation that can stand against the storm
look i did not come here to woo you, to argue for your hand
you’re strong enough without me, trust, i fully comprehend
you’re committed to your choice which is to help gods love expand
i really think that i could help you but if not i understand

but you should know that when i see your face i’m filled with joy
you make me want to sing a song and fill my voice with love
cause i’m reminded that there’s beauty here
and i find it so easy to see when you’re near
i know that you’re committed to the life you chose
to feed love to gods children and then help it grow
and i have faith in your work, in your dreams and goals
so i’m trying to let go my flow, surrender, and give up control
but it’s not easy
