Holy Roller (Love's Temple)

(album: Take No Prisoners - 2023)

I've walked among for a 1000 years
My spirits crying
Lost forever on a sea of tears
And I'm unforgiving

Holy Roller can't you see?
Life down here is misery
Holy Roller tell me lies
Now that I can't justify

There is no pity for a dying heart
My name is Darkness
I cry for mercy but my heart grew old
All through the laughter

Holy Roller let me bleed
The woman's made a mess of me
Holy Roller will it end?
Is this love or just pretend?

If love is a temple that's built on sand
If I am drowning will you reach out your hand?
And beware of the ways of the world
Beware of the words gently spoken
There's a light shines and takes you to the sun

I hope you find what you're looking for
I hope you find what you need
I'll turn my back and I'll walk away
And you won't hear me scream

Today, tomorrow and for evermore
I will remember
The loneliness when you slammed the door
It's finally over

Holy Roller can't you see?
Life down here is misery
Holy Roller tell me lies
Maybe I can justify
Holy Roller let me bleed
The woman's made a mess of me
