Lay me down before your god,
whom you picked out of a hat
when all hope was lost.
Make me the sacrificial lamb
who you lay on an altar,
knife at the ready.
Put that knife to my throat,
trace a line for death
out of desperation
Now slice deep,
so that your sinful ways
may be forgiven
And force me to my knees
screaming your prayers
out of gutless fear.
