[00:32.32] I ain't your Saviour or your Christ or your goddamn sacrifice
[00:47.51] And when I said I'd give my life, I weren't talkin' suicide
[00:57.20] And I'm so tired of trying to make it right,
[01:09.76] for a girl who just won't come to the light
[01:17.01] Night after night after night after Christ-haunted night
[01:30.23]
[01:32.41] And how you bring your gifts to me
[01:39.49] Tied-up and bound in their bows of pink
[01:47.56] And gently place them at my feet, like I'm some dying Christmas tree
[02:00.47] And drop down to your sexy kitten knees
[02:08.59] Sweetly fold your hands and plead for me to suck out some disease,
[02:19.68] I can't even begin to see
[02:33.24] You don't need a lover or a friend
[02:39.57] You need a god and not a mortal man
[02:46.47] Woman you need born again, again
[02:48.47] You need a Saviour and I'm just am not him
[03:13.22]
[05:02.67] And so you sing to me your songs
[05:04.60] And how you hum your holy verse
[05:07.10] And try to teach my tongue to talk
[05:08.42] Cuz you think it'll cure some curse
[05:08.67] But that dust of death it's dug too deep, to be sung or swept right off your sweet
[05:13.42] heart that lost its beat out there trying to light up cut down fallen men like me
[05:16.10] I ain't your Saviour or your Christ or your goddamn sacrifice
[05:17.54] And when I said I'd give my life, I weren't talkin' suicide
[05:26.96] And I'm so tired of trying to make it right, for a girl who won't come to the light
[05:43.52] Night after night after night after Christ-haunted night
[05:57.83]
[06:09.67] I can bring you to the water
[06:11.85] I can bring you to the shore
[06:15.04] I can give all I have to give but Sweetheart
[06:25.23] I can't give you more
[06:32.29] I can bring you to the water
[06:39.86] But I sure as hell can't make you drink
[06:47.17] It ain't Christmas time it's Easter, Honey Bunny,
[06:51.86] and I ain't the Saviour you so desperately need.
[07:03.84] And you won't be saved by saving me
[07:37.49] No, you won't be saved by saving me
[07:39.12] There's no need to cry those eyes
[07:40.93] I'll pack my bags and say goodbye
[07:47.86] And my return in your lifetime, is more unlikely than King Jesus Christ's
[07:59.23] I'll take up my gifts and walk the line
[08:04.48] Take down my starry guiding Christmas lights
[08:09.54] Say hello to the darkness my old friend,
[08:13.12] say hello to the sound of silence my dear sweet angel goodnight
[08:29.56]
[09:43.32] Cuz Sweetheart, I ain't your Christ
[09:57.43] Sweetheart, I ain't your Christ
Sweetheart, I Ain’t Your Christ Sweetheart, I Ain' t Your Christ Lyrics
