Mystery Jets
My Centurion
[Verse 1]
Buddy, don't grow up; it's a trap
All of the voices say you should know better than that
I'll pick up the pieces from the floor
‘Cause, buddy, there ain't nothing that God won't forgive you for

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Can't you be my centurion, my centurion?

[Verse 2]
I'll follow you everywhere you go
I'll be the R2-D2 your C-3P0
My motivation's good as gold
Your self-restraint is weak but I've got it under control

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Could you be my centurion, my centurion?
Could you be my centurion, my centurion?

[Chorus]
Save me, save me from the enemy outside
Oh won't you bathe me, bathe me in your everlasting light
Oh won't you save me, save me from myself
My centurion, my centurion

[Verse 3]
Your silhouette brings flesh to my fantasy
I'll meet you at the [?] of infidelity
Don't stub me out with the heel of your new shoes
I'm ready to blow like dynamite, girl, now, could you light my fuse?

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Could you be my centurion, my centurion?

[Bridge]
Centurion, centurion
Oh, now I can't believe the voice inside my head
It becomes part of me, and won't stop until I'm dead
Until I'm dead

[Chorus]
Save me, save me from the devil in disguise
Oh won't you bathe me, bathe me in your everlasting light
Oh won't you save me, save me from myself
My centurion, my centurion

[Outro]
My centurion
My centurion
My centurion
My centurion
My centurion
