They said the meek shall inherit the Earth
that seems like so much work
I want to sing and dream and drink and cry
And let this night pass me by
My affection is so unsteady
I can sleep through today
As the sun melts the ice caps away
I'll carry your cross now
It's a blasphemous world today
We are the tender missionary
When you are guilty of nothing less
Than a crooked wretched stupid tepid
My complexion is so unsteady
I want to move into your body and stay
I'll carry your cross now
It's a blasphemous world today
We are the tender missionary
Are you happier now? I feel now
Where we always are here to stay
They said the meek shall inherit the Earth
I want to know what it's all worth
With a knife in my back and a star in my eye
Can you take me to your heaven? — I'm ready
I know the weight of my heart is too heavy
I will love you with all of the love that I have
Even if that means there's none left for me
I'll carry your cross now
It's a blasphemous world today
We are the tender missionary
Are you happier now? — I feel now
Where we always are here to stay
(A cosmic kiss in the dead of night)
(A curse lifted under streetlight)
(I will love you in the future forever)
