PhemieC - Daughter of God lyrics

Doubt’s an elastic that snaps
Where you grasp it
With idle hands clasped on your
Wrist just as sharp as
A kiss on the scar where
You carved out her name
Or a line that is straight
And confined to your fate
You’re resigned to be damned by
Your hand in her hand
She will hold you as soft
As a feather on water
You float on her fingers, she pulls you apart
It’s not hard, it won't hurt
It’s not right for a daughter of god

Not for one of his flock
Not for good little girls
But good god you’re not good girl
Hate is a bile that starts
In your guts and erupts
From your throat like a geyser
You try to provoke
And emote and spit angry black
Stains on their lies
As they hock more to block out their shame
And their cries, how they try
But it won't be enough
Not as long as you live
You’ll all drown in the stuff
It won't help to be patient
The water will rise after all
You’re all in the same place aren’t you
Daughter of god?

Just one of his flock
Like the good little girls
But good god you’re not good girl

Good girl

Light, you can see now the dark is receding
Parts leaving, not bleeding
Just holes for the healing to start
There’s your heart and it sees
With it's wings out
It reads what you think in
The bones of the body
You shrink and you smile and
You try to make small
But the devil sees all and
She thinks you’re a beauty
You’re bursting and beating and burning up
Hotter each second
The reckoning comes for you daughter of god

Comes for one of his flock
For the good little girls
But good god you’re not good girl

Love is a place where she touches your face
But also your thighs (and it’s alright)
Love is a place where the tide always rises
The ink never dries (and it’s alright)
Love is a place where you see with
Your heart and fly with your eyes
(and it’s alright)
Love is a place where your
Innocence goes when it dies

You’ll never know what you could find
(let love turn on the light)
You’ll never know what you could find
(let love touch you tonight)
You’ll never know what you could find
(let love drown your soul)
You’ll never know what you could find
(let love make you whole, daughter of god)
