Drunk on holy water
And high on lips she brings

She gives me more than I can tell
She takes it all in just as well
I'm going down to see what she can be

In degrees of black it comes to me
Like the love that followed me here
In degrees of black I wash away
Only God is the thing I fear

I go where the day leads
Swim through into where she bleeds

She gives me more than I can tell
She takes it all in just as well
I'm going down to see what she can be

In degrees of black it comes to me
Like the love that followed me here
In degrees of black I wash away
Only God is the thing I fear, yeah

And I won't turn my back on what is here and now
Vestigial soul, pride open
I'm suffocated in star signs
Obligatory new addiction
Living, breathing, naked night

In degrees of black it comes to me
Like the love that followed me here
In degrees of black I wash away
Only God is the thing I fear, yeah

And I won't turn my back on what is here, oh, yeah
And I won't turn my back on what is here and now
