    They're taking 
    pictures 
    of the 
    Verse 1
    man from 
    God 

    I 
    hope his 
    cas
    sock's clean 

    The 
    burden 
    of being our 
    holy 
    fellas 

    Your 
    halo'd better gleam, 
    better 
    gleam 

    Verse 2
    What 
    of all those 
    wayward 
    priests? 

    The 
    ones 
    who like to 
    drink 

    Do 
    you suppose 
    they'd swap 

    their 
    blood for 
    wine 

    Like 
    you swapped 
    yours for 
    ink, for 
    ink 

    You 
    wrote me 
    oh so 
    Verse 3
    many 
    letters 

    And 
    all 
    of them seemed 
    true 

    Promises 
    look 
    good on 
    paper 

    Es
    pecially 
    from 
    you, from 
    you 

    Verse 4
    The weight 
    of all those 
    willing 
    words 

    I 
    carried 
    all 
    alone 

    You 
    wouldn't 
    put your 
    pen to 
    bed 

    When 
    we 
    hadn't 
    found our 
    own, our 

    own 

    Verse 5

    Your 
    sentences 
    rose 
    high at 
    night 

    And 
    circled 
    round my 
    head 

    The 
    circle's 
    since been 
    broken 

    Like 
    the 
    priest 
    before me is 

    breaking 
    bread 

    Verse 6
    I'm 
    being asked 
    to drink the 

    blood of 
    Christ 

    And 
    soon I'll 
    eat his 
    flesh 

    I'm 
    alone 
    again be
    fore the 
    altar 

    Shedding 
    all my 
    old 
    re
    grets 

    Verse 7
    The 
    last 
    of which I'll 
    tell you 
    now 

    As 
    it flies 
    down 
    the 
    sink 

    I 
    never 
    knew a 
    part 
    of 
    you 

    You 
    didn't 
    set in 
    ink, 
    in 
    ink 

    Verse 8
    The letters 
    that you 
    left be
    hind 

    No 
    longer 
    shall I 
    read 

    Your 
    blood's 
    between the 
    pages 

    And 
    I can't 
    stand to 
    see you 
    bleed 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 9
    And 
    I'll 
    soon forget 
    what 

    was 
    never 
    there 

    Your 
    words 
    are ash and 
    dust 

    All that's 
    left is 
    the 
    song I've 
    sun
    g 

    The 
    breath I've 
    taken 
    and the 
    one I 
    must 

    Verse 10
    If 
    you're born 
    with a love for 

    the 
    wrote and 
    the 
    writ 

    People 
    of letters 
    your 

    warn
    ing stands 
    clear 

    Pay 
    heed to 
    your heart 
    and 

    not to your 
    wit 

    Don't 
    say in a 
    letter what 
    you 
    can
    't in my 
    ear

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
