Preacher

The craving comes and goes
Like the ripples in this ocean
Drying out slow
I guess that's how it feels
Every time you choose
To look the other way
Did you find something better there?
Teller of sad love stories
Broken trust and sunken glories
Teaching not to damage a heart

When I ask you say it's blurry
Suddenly we're in a hurry
Then we watch it all fall apart

Preacher, preacher, preacher
Say a prayer for yourself
You turned scars into a fire
Now it burns my skin
Preacher, preacher, preacher
Don't come here asking for help
Because you sure won't find saving
In this quiet bed where you sinned
In this quiet bed where you sinned

Daggers sank so deep
Deeper than the ones you swallowed
Dragging me down
But I learned to live and breathe
Underneath a sea of gravel
While your heart became so damn hollow

You've been hurt, now you go hurt me
Suddenly you're in a hurry
Then we watch it all fall apart

Preacher, preacher, preacher
Say a prayer for yourself
You turned scars into a fire
Now it burns my skin
Preacher, preacher, preacher
Don't come here asking for help
Because you sure won't find saving
In this quiet bed where you sinned
In this quiet bed where you sinned

(Preacher)
It's too late, you damaged my heart
(Preacher)
So now watch it all fall apart
(Preacher)
(Preacher)
Oh preacher

Preacher, preacher, preacher
Say a prayer for yourself
You turned scars into a fire
Now it burns my skin
Preacher, preacher, preacher
Don't come here asking for help
Because you sure won't find saving

Preacher, preacher, preacher
Say a prayer for yourself
You turned scars into a fire
Now it burns my skin
Preacher, preacher, preacher
Don't come here asking for help
Because you sure won't find saving
In this quiet bed where you sinned

(Preacher)
You sinned
(Preacher)
Oh preacher
(Preacher)
(Preacher)
Preacher, preacher, preacher
