Velvet Tongue letra

A thousand tears, a thousand eyes
My friends and I we cry
Religion has raped us

Forever we rehearse the song
That strips our throats to blood
We bare our souls in transparency
But our velvet tongues will never please their ears

But are you holding on?
I'm holding on

Look at us dying
A field of human crucifixes, weathered and fading
Heaven hears nothing as the priests are wailing
And they're crushing our souls

We feel our lives
Sifting through our hands
But we're holding on

Look at my face
Look at God in my eyes

We stand
