Teddy Swims Last Communion Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I used to believe Heaven was bulletproof
Only God can turn a red light blue (Only God can turn a red light blue)
Been cuttin' me deep, dyin' to talk to you
Only love can push the blade right through

[Pre-Chorus]
This love's an orphan callin' on deaf ears
There's no afterlife, but if there is
It's late in the night time, so it's the right time
For sleep talkin', sleep talkin'
[Chorus]
And now the lie's shot dead
Buried under each and every word unsaid
Twenty-four hours just go by, God bless
'Fore we let the doors get away
One last communion, babe
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

[Verse 2]
So I let it go, nobody else around
Couldn't watch forever fall face down
So I turned my head the second it hit the ground
And I felt it, but it made no sense

[Pre-Chorus]
This love's an orphan callin' on deaf ears
There's no afterlife, but if there is It's late in the night time, so it's the right time
For sleep talkin', sleep talkin'

[Chorus]
He was a grand old age
Oh, yes, I know that nothin' broke can stay
But I couldn't bring myself to turn that page
Before I dropped a kiss on the grave
One last communion, baby
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)
[Bridge]
One last communion, baby
One last, one last, one last
One last communion, baby
One last, one last
Oh-ooh, ooh-oh

[Chorus]
It was a childish game
Who can light a candle in the cryin' rain
No one could know about the mess we've made
That's why I've been prayin' that the blood don't stain
I only whisper your name
One last communion, baby
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

[Outro]
One last communion, baby (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, babe)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
One last, one last
