My lover’s got humour. She’s the giggle at a funeral. Knows everybody’s disapproval. I should’ve worshiped her sooner. -Hozier
My church offers no absolution. She tells me, ‘Worship in the bedroom’. The only heaven I’ll be sent to is when I’m alone with you. -Hozier
Take me to church. I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I’ll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife. Offer me my deathless death. Good God, let me give you my life! -Hozier
Honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips. We should just kiss like real people do. -Hozier
Way she shows me I’m hers and she is mine- open hand or closed fist would be fine. The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine. -Hozier
Babe, there’s something lonesome about you, something so wholesome about you. Get closer to me. -Hozier
When my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold dark earth. No grave can hold my body down. I’ll crawl home to her. -Hozier
When I was a child, I heard voices. Some would sing and some would scream. You soon find you have few choices. I learned the voices died with me. -Hozier
All you have is your fire and the place you need to reach. Don’t you ever tame your demons, always keep them on a leash. -Hozier
Honey, when you kill the lights and kiss my eyes, I feel like a person for a moment of my life. -Hozier
It feels good, girl, it feels good to be alone with you. -Hozier
“Sexuality, and sexual orientation, regardless of orientation, is just natural. An act of sex is one of the most human things” -Hozier
“There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin.” -Hozier
The song is about asserting yourself and reclaiming your humanity through an act of love. -Hozier
“All songs, all pieces of art, reflect the world that they were made in and the values of those artists and the hopes and aspirations of the people who listen to that music and who made that music” -Hozier
