lyrics

orn into a future so bright
Surrounded by a narrow view of new life
Shielded from the thought of true strife

Every tithe a tantamount confession
That what I’m buying is divine permission
To live the life that consumes my vision

Every single tiny morsel down the wretched hatch

What will we say when we would not offer
The very things that fed us for slaughter
We knew the way but could not be bothered

I know your book and I know your Jesus
But he’s no king he’s an inconvenience
How can you mean that he came to free us

Every single tiny morsel down the wretched hatch
Every hand a rigid fist the venom of the asp

Every soul that’s bent on evil
Every saint that’s passed
We cannot mend our very breath until we breathe our last
