(8 bars instrumental, band groove in, organ pad, light guitar, brushes to sticks) A strange ache of you crawls under my skin, slow and mean Shameless and bare, leaves me empty, burning clean I go back to those dumb loves we swore would never end Whispered words after midnight can make the whole world bend That little second you ain’t here, I split and fall apart Cast out from Eden with a hollow in my heart I pray and I hunger, God and want on the same line Holy light, dirty hands, baby you’re both mine I worship and I wreck in the nude of honest lines Carved around my heart like a stamp that never signs You load my head with fevered flights that clutch and will not rest Dark verses drum and hammer on my chest That tiny beat of absence turns the day to midnight black A promised Eden torn apart, I count what I lack I pray and I hunger, God and want on the same line Holy light, dirty hands, baby you’re both mine Fill me up, break me down, bless me with your sin Saint and sinner tangled up, I can’t tell where one begins (12 bars instrumental, minor pentatonic, band swells) I pray and I hunger, God and want on the same line Holy light, dirty hands, baby you’re both mine (4 bars instrumental tag, sparse guitar motif, organ pad fade)
