Lyrics
My door's no longer darkened
My lips are not pursed
I have shed all reminders
Of a life I used to curse
I was wondering in the forest
Of a city by the bay
When the light inside your shadow
Taught me there's another way
You're a rock star in the bedroom
You're a goddess in church
You're a planet on fire
And there's one thing even worse
It's the vines you've grown inside me
Seeking sunlight everyday
You're a Rocking Goddess Temple
And I'm ready to play
You're a Rocking Goddess Temple
And I'm so ready to play
Do you have thoughtful agendas
When you wink your eye at me
Or are you pretending
That our world could ever be
A disciple of the promise
Of an everlasting dream
I surrender to the pleasure
Of whatever all this means
You're a rock star in the bedroom
You're a goddess in church
You're a planet on fire
And there's one thing even worse
It's the vines you've grown inside me
Seeking sunlight everyday
You're a Rocking Goddess Temple
And I'm so ready to play
(Instrumental)
You're a rock star in the bedroom
You're a goddess in church
You're a planet on fire
And there's one thing even worse
It's the vines you've grown inside me
Seeking sunlight everyday
You're a Rocking Goddess Temple
And I'm so ready to play
