Lyrics
Ashen dawn, I wake in chains,
Scripture stained with holy veins,
A crown of thorns, a tourniquet,
In blood I find my sacrament.
I whisper Psalms through shattered teeth,
Each verse a ghost beneath my skin,
My faith decays, yet still I cling,
To Christ beneath the heroin.
Chorus:
Needle and the Nazarene!
Crucified within my dream!
Mercy bleeds where angels weep,
Deliver me, deliver me!
The Book lies open on my chest,
A dying man with holy breath,
I quote His word through hollow eyes,
While chasing Heaven through the lies.
I saw His face in static blur,
In every dose, a whispered prayer,
Forgive me, Lord, I sought Your flame,
But found damnation in Your name.
Bridge:
Though I walk through the valley of death
I built a temple from my flesh!
Psalms in the puddle, verses drowned,
The serpent sings I lay me down.
Now angels nod in blackened bliss,
Their wings are ash, their lips drip hiss,
I preach in whispers to the void,
A prophet lost, a faith destroyed.
My souls communion rust and bone,
A hollow prayer, a hollow home,
Yet in the rush, I see His light,
A fleeting God in endless night.
(Chorus)
Needle and the Nazarene!
Redeem my soul in morphine dreams!
Pierce my heart, my faith, my skin,
For every sin I shoot again!
The wages of sin is death
And I am paid in full.
