Midnight Masses lyrics

walk on water

carry on, walk on water
carry on, for your daughter, for your son
the damage is done
it's time had come
there's nothing wrong with moving on
so carry on
carry on, walk on water
carry on, for your daughter, for your son
the damage is done
it's time had come
there's nothing wrong with loving someone new
carry on, walk on water
carry on


preacher's son

rapture ready, i gazed at the gun
i didn't lose the signal not even once
i looked over my shoulder
an angelic sniper was aiming at me for killing everyone
it was night and it was day
the demons took my body away
i said hold on i used to be a preacher's son
left the body, damage was done
i didn't use my conscience, not even once
i went to the altar to see my brother
tell it's all for love that he had won
it was day and it was night
i took a walk with the angel of light
he said hold on do you know whose side i'm on
rapture ready, i gazed at the body
i looked at his eyes and i saw everyone
it was night and it was day
the demons took my body away
i said hold on i used to be a preacher's son


desperate man

i was a desperate man, empty bottle in my hand
and from a jealous god, i lost my rights and knew my wrongs
and all the people stopped and stared
at my body laying there
and though their eyes were horrified
they pretended not to care
i was a desperate man, loaded shotgun in my hand
i lead a desperate life
i've lived in desperate times
and on the day my father died
i felt an emptiness inside
he was a legend in my mind
he helped us through these desperate times


heaven

heaven
i got the key but there's no door
the drugs don't work anymore
it's the weight, it's my sin
i know i don't belong in heaven
heaven
i don't walk like a saint
as i walk through the gates
and they don't know my name and
i know i can't stay in heaven
heaven
i don't walk like a saint
as i walk through the gates
and they don't know my name
so i know i can't stay in heaven
i got the key but there's no door
the drugs don't work anymore
it's the weight, it's my sin
i know i don't belong in heaven
