An Act of Contrition Bloc Party

They're burning books and they're burning kids
Jesus says that it's okay

We're mired, votive candles, say a prayer release me
The Lord says, wait upon me, it's not easy
It's not found in flowers, hoping for catharsis
If you just had faith, you'd stop crying, say a prayer release me

We resist

You're not making any friends
We got heat, we got bonfires
Learn to die a little everyday
We got something to believe in
