new religion Lyrics

I heard you on a corner

Curiosity got the best of me

I had nothing to lose

I watched you on a podium

Invoking dark-colored dreams

Under an awning under the rain

The sounds of your soft, raging voices

The premonitions you thunder for a crowd of one, me

That god has sent an angel

In the creature perfect you about saving me

& yes, I'm here to receive

Preaching what I can be if I let you touch me

A raving mad woman, you are

Predicting uninvited twists

Preaching patience

Chanting verses

Affirming low-cost heavens

Soon for this older man growing in me

Yes I'm listening

& I'm captivated by the burnings of your humming words

The simmerings of your beautiful cheeks

& I hold my head humbled in amazement

Yes, I concur

What is pride if it is not desecrated & purified by you

What is heaven & hell without punishments & rewards?

Balanced to the tune of your hummings

If not judged by you?

Knocking on Heaven's Doors is a favorite highway anthem

For the wandering me

In my infidel dreams coming back to you with a vow-laced smile

Yes, I'm feeling it

My extreme games naive to you

My inner self is still in a cocooning mood

Butterflies curling in me a consenting servant

Devoting me to you a gift of life wanting to say

If you have a new religion

You have a believer, my beloved

The callings of your faith still rings in my head

Like the first time, I saw your glowing face

I'll be waiting for your second coming

To show you

That if you have a new religion

I'm a believer
