Reverend Girl Lyrics

We are for today
We are for the moment
We are a crusade
But we are invalid

1:00 AM rummaging
Stain my hands on her antique
2:00 AM

Reverend girl

I am so indifferent
I am whatever

3:00 AM cellophane
Suffocates my favorite things
4:00 AM

With a reverend girl
Seems that the more we're achieving
The less chance of leaving this world
With a reverend girl

Another lover wakes me
Head upon a window pane
Before the thunder shook us
She could always smell the rain
A year is dissipating
Another hail cannot disdain
Never mind the thunder
Now my lover smells like
Now my lover smells like
Now my lover smells like rain

With a reverend girl
Seems that the more we're achieving
The less chance of leaving this world
With a reverend girl

Seems that the more we're achieving
The less chance of leaving this world
With a reverend girl
With a reverend girl
