letra de irreverent girl - weevildoing

[verse 1]
a sleepless sunday morning is nothing new to me
there’s something about that day that makes my body weak
the itchy tights and dresses, the walls that make you burn
the pain is necessary for a godless child to learn

when i was 8 they bathed me, their water made me pure
what did an 8-year-old have to ask for forgiveness for?
that painting made by man, the depicted divine
if my life is spent in worship, then is it really mine?
“how stupid could someone be to believe them?”
“how stupid would you have to be to believe them?”
i was that stupid, i am the one you demonize
i was the one who suffered, and still stupid, in your eyes

[chorus]
heavenly father, please alter this body
it’s impure and sinful, i don’t want it on me
my skin is burning up, temptation is too much
can’t seem to keep my legs together
make me blessed, make me better

[verse 2]
a sleepless sat-rday night is nothing new to me
because, somewhere in my brain, i know the next day’s coming
a pavlovian response to men carrying trays
the deafening silence as all the kids pretend to pray

they said the main in the sky who’s always watching me
with whiter clothes and paler skin than you have ever seen
a man that i have never met and maybe never will
they said that i must beg and weep for his forgiveness still

they put me in their tank of water, it was wonderful
one of the fish that jesus fed them, still inside the bowl
i cried inside the bathroom, my white dress got all wet
if jesus loves me now, then why do i feel so upset?
[chorus]
heavenly father, please alter this body
it’s impure and sinful, i don’t want it on me
my skin is burning up, temptation is too much
can’t seem to keep my story straight
the god i love’s a man i hate

[verse 3]
a building of worship with cameras for safety
a god that will love me will also berate me

even if you don’t want to get to know him
we’re gonna make sure that you get to know him
even if you don’t want to get to know him
we’re gonna make sure that you get to know him

[chorus]
heavenly father, please alter this body
it’s impure and sinful, i don’t want it on me
my skin is burning up, expectation is too much
you’ve broken my heart into pieces
maybe i no longer need it

heavenly father, please alter this body
it’s impure and sinful, i don’t want it on me
my skin is burning up, temptation is too much
can’t seem to keep my legs together
make me blessed, make me better
heavenly father, please alter this body
it’s impure and sinful, i don’t want it on me
my skin is burning up, temptation is too much
can’t seem to keep my legs together
make me blessed, make me better

[outro]
i still get letters from them
i don’t know what to do
i wanna be frustrated
but i know they’re victims too

that part of my life is gone
let the screen fade to black
“and so it came to pass,”
that i am never looking back
