The Dear Hunter - The Pimp and the Priest lyrics

(Take me to the river take me to the river)

The pimp and the priest pounce
On quickened cats' feet
For the freshest young blood
Innocence for the feast
The book will then brew
What the sinful commit
While the pimp and priest prey quietly
Where the precious sinners sit

Confess, oh, confess
In the chapel or brothel
Where we suffocate stress
We've got the time if you've got the scratch
(Conquer your sins while she
Screams on her back)

Faster, save me how the sins remain hostage
Harder, I can't breathe

Now the priest and the
Pimp are already equipped
With an enigmatic frontage posts
"we welcome walk-ins"
So we corner our pace and
Make quick for the door
To be prodded and passed from
The bed to the floor

Confess, oh, confess
In the chapel or brothel
Where we suffocate stress
We've got the time if you've got the scratch
(Conquer your sins while she
Screams on her back)

Take me to the river take me to the river

Faster, save me how the sins remain hostage
Harder, I can't breathe

Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake

Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake

Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake

Faster, save me (Take me to the river)
How the sins remain hostage
Harder, I can't breathe
(Take me to the river)
Faster, save me (Take me to the river)
How the sins remain hostage
Harder, I can't breathe
(Take me to the river)

Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
Sing softly, sing 'em to the lake
Sing softly, bring 'em to the lake
