[Verse 1] Steven the Martyr, leaned on the rail by the door Work boots dusty, same old grin as before He said, "I been burned, but I still want more" Then she came in swinging like a match to a floor [Pre-Chorus] And the whole room bent when she cut that line Gold hair falling like a long white sign He forgot his name for a little while Yeah, he forgot his name when she smiled [Chorus] Steven the Martyr (oh, Steven, Steven) Couldn't forget her (couldn't let her go) Blonde bombshell Jessica Jesus (Jessica Jesus) She walked right through him like a holy ghost [Verse 2] She wore red lips and a denim jacket sleeve Told him, "Boy, you look like somebody I could leave" He laughed too hard at the mercy he needed Then she traced his palm and the whole place leaned in [Pre-Chorus] Now he's driving home with her perfume on his shirt One hand shaking like a prayer gone hurt He said, "If this is sin, then let it be" With a busted little heart and a half-lit dream [Chorus] Steven the Martyr (oh, Steven, Steven) Couldn't forget her (couldn't let her go) Blonde bombshell Jessica Jesus (Jessica Jesus) She walked right through him like a holy ghost [Bridge] [Breakdown] Well, the preacher said wait but the band played on Steven lost his cool by the second song If love is trouble then trouble got a name And he keeps on calling in the pouring rain [Final Chorus] Steven the Martyr (oh, Steven, Steven) Couldn't forget her (couldn't let her go) Blonde bombshell Jessica Jesus (Jessica Jesus) She walked right through him like a holy ghost Steven the Martyr (oh, Steven, Steven) Couldn't forget her (couldn't let her go) Blonde bombshell Jessica Jesus (Jessica Jesus) She left him singing with a broken rose
