Lyrics
My Religion
©1997 Ray Kainz/Sue Ann Kainz
When I looked into your eyes
I thought I saw the flame
your kisses baptized me
and at your feet I prayed
Your body was my alter
were I worshiped every night
my faith was without falter
my will without a fight
You were my religion cross myself three times
Your desires were the trinity and your commands my wine
You were my religion but I'm through with you amen
no more of you amen
My teardrops make a rosary
a prayer as each one falls
no more genuflection
at the slightest of your calls
cuz I don't need your liturgy
to tell me that I'm wrong
confession's what you need to do
forgiveness is not in this song
I don't need your hymnal
to follow when I sing
no I don't need you anymore
this angel's taking wing
You were my religion cross myself three times
Your desires were the trinity and your commands my wine
You were my religion full of false prophetic talk
You were my religion gonna pick up my mat and walk
cuz You were my religion but I'm through with you amen
no more of you amen

Or maybe you have been consulted by Mcboy, Inc? I am beginning to
figure it all out. There are a few artists on MacJams that I have doubts
about: Cori Ander, Mcboy, and now, you. I doubt that you are a real
person. Ray Kainz? Right! Good name to front the team of musicians,
writers, etc who produced this piece.
I remember the original version posted a year or so ago. Funkier. But I
really like this one. The religious imagery still doesn't quite work for
me overall, but the sound of this tune is so good that the lyrics don't
really matter. Great guitar, vocal, harmonies.
Please pass these comments on to the front office.
