    My lover's got humor
    She's the giggle at a funeral
    Knows everybody's disapproval
    I should've worshiped her sooner
    If the Heavens ever did speak
    She's the last true mouthpiece
    Every Sunday's getting more bleak
    A fresh poison each week
    "We were born sick", you heard them say it
    My church offers no absolutes
    She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom"
    The only Heaven I'll be sent to
    Is when I'm alone with you
    I was born sick, but I love it
    Command me to be well
    A-, Amen, Amen, Amen
    Take me to church
    I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
    I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
    Offer me that deathless death
    Good God, let me give you my life
    Take me to church
    I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
    I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
    Offer me that deathless death
    Good God, let me give you my life
    If I'm a pagan of the good times
    My lover's the sunlight
    To keep the Goddess on my side
    She demands a sacrifice
    Drain the whole sea
    Get something shiny
    Something meaty for the main course
    That's a fine looking high horse
    What you got in the stable?
    We've a lot of starving faithful
    That looks tasty
    That looks plenty
    This is hungry work
    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
    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
    No masters or kings when the ritual begins
    There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
    In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
    Only then I am human
    Only then I am clean
    Oh, oh, Amen, Amen, Amen
    Take me to church
    I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
    I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
    Offer me that deathless death
    Good God, let me give you my life
    Take me to church
    I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
    I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
    Offer me that deathless death
    Good God, let me give you my life

      AUTOTUNE DOESNT NOT MAKE YOU AUTOMATICALLY SING.
      IF YOU SOUND BAD WITHOUT IT, YOU WILL SOUND JUST AS BAD WITH IT.
      It’s not some type of musical cheat code 💀
      That’s the huge misconception people have about autotune.
      It’s pitch correction, it’s not gonna completely alter your voice. If you’re not in key it literally does nothing for you lol.

      There's something gritty about songs that are sung without autotune that make the song that much better. This grittiness is what adds impact. I come from an orchestral background which oftentimes requires a delicate touch. This grittiness is absolutely an essential aspects of a song. Even some orchestral pieces add in rougher play to add emphasis. Autotune removes nearly all of that. Sure the notes are correct but the musicality of it seems to be missing somehow. There are certainly ways around this, but it seems that in a typical situation autotune removes much of the aspects of music that make it appreciable.
