lyrics

I’m your momma, I’m your daddy
I’m the prophet, I’m the thief
Come and meet me in the alter
For some blessed relief

I’m a paradox of virtue
And a paragon of shame
Don’t worry I won’t hurt you
Won’t let the Devil lay his claim

I’ll enable you to stand up
Deliver you from strife
You can proudly hold your hand up
As I gently twist your life

With Salvation [meet me at the water]
Salvation [Come aboard the train]
Salvation [Like a heifer to the slaughter]
Salvation [I can ease the pain]

[Solos]

I’m that shoulder you can lean on
Don’t mind the thousand cuts
Your Sealy Posturepedic
And then a backhand to the nuts

I’m your ticket to redemption
The gateway to shame
I can ease the tension
Won’t let the Devil lay his claim

I’ll enable you to stand up
Enable you to fly
You can proudly hold your hand up
With that sacred alibi
Of Salvation…

I’m your momma, I’m your daddy
I’m the prophet, I’m the thief
Come and meet me in the alter
For some blessed relief

I’m a paradox of virtue
And a paragon of shame
Don’t worry I won’t hurt you
Won’t let the Devil lay his claim

I’ll enable you to stand up
Deliver you from strife
You can proudly hold your hand up
As I gently twist your life

With Salvation [meet me at the water]
Salvation [Come aboard the train]
Salvation [Like a heifer to the slaughter]
Salvation [I can ease the pain]

I’m that shoulder you can lean on
Don’t mind the thousand cuts
Your Sealy Posturepedic
And then a backhand to the nuts

I’m your ticket to redemption
The gateway to shame
I can ease the tension
Won’t let the Devil lay his claim

I’ll enable you to stand up
Enable you to fly
You can proudly hold your hand up
With that sacred alibi
Of Salvation…
