Come in sit down sweet angel leave me all your tears
Tell me all of your troubles the weight of your short years
Love is only a river drowning all of your cheer
Sell me all of your laughter and I will take some of your fear
His favourite days were the mornings she came in with confessions of cardinal sin
A beast in the business of selling forgiveness dead eyes on a treacherous grin
And he laps up the vice like a wolf in the night he's the left hand of God on the stage
And with one hand he offers salvation to lovers the other taketh away
So give me your fire give me your fear give me your faith when love gives you tears
Give me your heart give me your fate give me your hand when love gives you hate
Give me your prayers up on your feet and I'll give you a show it helps fill the seats
So give me your sins give me your lies but whisper your love
And I'll whisper mine
His favourite line was the one formed outside where the trade in confessions for lies
A beast in the business of selling forgiveness and buying salvation with wine
And he cries out to God how can you claim them all when I know that they are all mine
So give me your fire give me your fear give me your faith when love gives you tears
Give me your heart give me your fate give me your hand when love gives you hate
Give me your prayers up on your feet and I'll give you a show it helps fill the seats
So give me your sins give me your lies but whisper your love
And I'll whisper mine
Come in sit down sweet angel and I will take some of your fear...
