tom macdonald - church lyrics

[verse 1: tom macdonald]
i need a short drink or a long prayer
i’ve been sober, but i don’t care
i’m so scared of my own self
i get no help, and that’s no fair
so don’t go there, i’ve been h+ll and back
i got scorched hair in this gucci cap
i got empty bottles and a million follows
i regret swallowing the ativan
f+ck it, let’s be real
i resent the way that i feel
i pretend that it’s cool, but i miss getting drunk
and i’m angry that god doesn’t help when i kneel
f+ck it, i said my prayers
when i got cleaned, sh+t just got worse
i quit doing drugs, and i pleaded with jesus to save me
but he didn’t hear my words
this sh+t don’t work, it hurts
i went to church, now i need liquid courage
whiskey in my glass, i take the knives out of my back to stir it
go to h+ll and back again, then show you burns to prove i earned it
i need shots or god to gain the strength i need, i’m just a person

[chorus: tom macdonald & nova rockafeller]
i pray on my way
to the liquor store that they locked the doors
’cause i’ll lay in my grave
if the whiskey pours like it did before
i’m scared, i send out a prayer
can anybody hear me? is anybody there?
’cause honestly it hurts and every day is worst
i keep buying whiskey when all i need is church
[verse 2: brandon hart]
i keep talking to god, but he don’t hear me
and my demons are there, always listening
i get lost in the dark, drowning in whiskey
and i went in so far, you say you miss me
i’m on a ship in a bottle, so say goodbye at the shore
break the glass and you’ll find me, i’m not who i was before
close my eyes in the darkness and hold on through the storm
i’m a wreck in a bottle, i wasn’t built for a war
these church pews
bright lights, whiskey glasses, bottles of booze
make short days to long nights
the bottle, the bible, i didn’t know what to choose

[bridge: tom macdonald]
i can’t read, but the bible’s still with me
my eyes can’t see from the bottles of whiskey
i don’t believe anybody will miss me
and i’m on my knees, tell me, god, are you listening?
[chorus: tom macdonald & nova rockafeller]
i pray on my way
to the liquor store that they locked the doors
’cause i’ll lay in my grave
if the whiskey pours like it did before
i’m scared, i send out a prayer
can anybody hear me? is anybody there?
’cause honestly it hurts and every day is worst
i keep buying whiskey when all i need is church
