Baptizing the Automatic Heart Lyrics

I'm told Jesus invented wine

And since then it's been a long, slow slide

We're always falling in love with each other at separate times

Flipped upside-down, super wide and backwards

In each other's eyes

Judith dropped the eucharist on the floor

Father Good bent down to kiss the carpet

Later on, she saw him at the store

Buying a six-pack and ingredients to make some more

Oh, it shuts off

And no one knows where it goes

And the edge of every black hole

Is infinitely cold

And so endlessly full

When I was thirteen or so

I saw the innocent glow expressed by my halo

Blur into the ether

Underneath the bleachers

Pig dust and pie crust

Inflatable hammers

I threw up on the gravitron

Blacked out, no idea who it landed on

Five Hail Mary's later I was absolved

Clean slate, didn't even have to tell my mom

Until now

But somehow I suspect that wasn't enough

Because you know I'm still that shy kid on the bus

Apologizing to inanimate stuff

Just because it passes by my window
