lyrics

Watch out, stay alert!
Have you heard, every father?
Every father is a god
Every father is a god
He controls your world
He can set it on fire
If he wants
Every father is a god
Every father is a god
I don't wanna be a part of this religion
All I see is fire
For the whole church
I don't want to tell this stranger all my secrets
So he can tell me what I deserve

Pray every day and you might see the light
Pray in the rain that I might feel alright
Eventually
Eventually
Pray like a saint would
Pray and life is all good
Pray every day and you're named after a saint
St. Anthony
St. Anthony

I don't wanna be a part of this religion
All I see is fire
For the whole church
I don't want to tell this stranger all my secrets
So he can tell me what I deserve

Praying to flame
I am praying to a flame
That's more intimidating than comforting
Looking at my grave
I am looking at my grave
Looking at my grave and it doesn't say my name
It says "St. Anthony"
