When did my body cease to be a temple A place I was proud to plea for You to come and dwell Now every room is occupied by greedy lovers And the once majestic embassy Became a five star roach motel I used to fall asleep with my head against Your chest No one could have convinced me the way was barred to You And the heavens painted brass But now the bed is much to crowded for one more I'm lullabied to the rhythm of the longing tears That drench your pallet on the floor Have I crossed the line of no returning to where we first began Could my now condemned motel of shame become A temple ever again When did the melodies of love distort and cease Where every note was drenched in anthems of Your name Now only songs of mass destruction plague the airwaves And the once surrendered symphonies Drink of seduction's cheap champagne I used to fall asleep with my head against Your chest No one could have convinced me the way was barred to You And the heavens painted brass But now the bed is much to crowded for one more I'm lullabied to the rhythm of the longing tears That drench Your pallet on the floor Have I crossed the line of no returning to where we first began Could my now condemned motel of shame become A temple ever again Oh my soul why do you circle round this mountain Shame has taken hold, I'm at it's mercy once again How did I choose the path more traveled Pushing open my own doors Adapt the wanderings of a prodigal The perfume of a whore I know that You're a jealous lover Would You take me back once more But I'm ashamed to say I need You Degrade You to my last resort Have I crossed the line of no returning to where we first began Could my now condemned motel of shame become A temple ever again
