St. Vincent
Jesus Saves, I Spend
While Jesus is saving I'm spending all my daysIn backgrounds and landscapes with the languages of saintsWhile people are spinning like toys on Christmas dayI'm inside a still life with the other absenteeWhile Jesus is saving, I'm spending all my daysIn the garden-grey pallor of lines across your faceWhile people will cheer on the spectacle we've madeI'm sitting and sculpting menageries of saintsOh, my man my absenteeI'd do anything to please youCome my love the stage is waitingBe the one to save my saving graceWhile Jesus is saving I'm spending all my graceOn rosy-red pallor of lights on center stageWhile people have cheered on the awful mess we've madeThrough storms of red roses we've exited the stage
