i've got a direct line with the devil

and sometimes when you're scared

(your mother-pastor-church-belief

say this is wrong and you're not ready

for your only home to be the flames)

you watch me ring him up

and listen when i check for our names on the reservation list.

you're not on there, yet, but i've got a table booked for life

and he says if you want to be my plus one all you have to do

is fuck me again and tell me you mean it

(don't quote the psalms when you say you love me,

baby, don't you know that paper burns?)
