"Griftwood" lyrics - GHOST

GHOST
"Griftwood"

[Intro:]
(Yes) Yeah

Suffering for the Lord is not an easy thing
Be it a conjuring
So ordained and adored, so immaculate
Ooh, so worth the debt

[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm your rock, baby, I won't back down
I'm your rock, baby, ask yourself, ooh
Are you righteous? (Yes)

[Chorus:]
You want to play with the sire? (Yes)
You want a view from the spire? (Yes)
You want a seat by the pyre?
And never ever suffer again
(Yes)
(Yeah)
(Yeah)

Sacrifice for the horde, leads the way from shame
Be it a loser's game
The disdain and abhorred, lash of the senate whip
Ooh, it's a power trip

[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm your rock, baby, I won't back down
I'm your rock, baby, ask yourself, ooh
Are you righteous? (Yes)

[Chorus:]
You want to play with the sire? (Yes)
You want a view from the spire? (Yes)
You want a seat by the pyre?
And never ever suffer again (Yes)
You want to console the griever? (Yes)
You want to guide the believer? (Yes)
You and the greatest deceiver?
And never ever suffer again

[Bridge:]
Holy Mother
You washeth the sin from my feet
Holy Mother
You shine like the sun and the moon and the stars in the sky
Holy Mother (Mother)
You washeth the sin from my feet
Holy Mother
You shine like the sun and the moon and the stars in the sky
The world rests heavy on your shoulders
Holy Mother
You shine like the sun and the moon and the stars in the sky

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm your rock, baby, I won't back down
I'm your rock, baby, ask yourself, ooh
Are you righteous? (Yes)

[Chorus:]
You want to play with the sire? (Yes)
You want a view from the spire? (Yes)
You want a seat by the pyre?
And never ever suffer again (Never ever suffer, never ever suffer again)
You want to play with the sire? (Yes)
You want a view from the spire? (Yes)
You want a seat by the pyre?
And never ever suffer again (Yeah)
You want to console the griever?
You want to guide the believer?
You and the greatest deceiver?
And never ever suffer again
