歌詞精講：
My lover's got humor
She's the「giggle」 at a funeral
Knows everybody's「disapproval」
I should've「worship」her sooner
這是一首以同性愛人口吻創作出來的歌曲，第一句中的「she」其實是講的自己的同性戀愛人。
giggle v. 吃吃地笑 “她”在葬禮上發出了 笑聲，實際上是說他的愛人有點“離經叛道”，敢于“coming out”（出柜）。
disapproval ｎ. 不贊成
我們的感情是不被世人所認可的。因此，同性戀者會hide their true sexual orientation.
worshipｖ. 崇拜
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the「shrine」 of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good god, let me give you my life
這段是歌曲的副歌部分，也是整首歌情感的爆發。
shrine v. 把……封為神圣。“我將把你的謊言奉為圣旨”這句歌詞的反諷意味十分濃厚。
