Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know how us Catholic girls can be
We make up for so much time a little too late
[PreChorus]
I never forgot it, confusing as it was
No fun with no guilt feelings
The sinners, the saviors, the loverless priests
I'll see you next Sunday
[Chorus]
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
[Verse 2]
I sang Alleluia in the choir
I, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia
I confessed my darkest deeds to an envious man
[PreChorus]
My brothers, they never went blind for what they did
But, I may as well have
In the name of the Father
The skeptic and the Son
I had one more stupid question
[Chorus]
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
[Bridge]
What I learned, I rejected, but I believe again
I will suffer the consequence of this inquisition
If I jump in this fountain, will I be forgiven?
[Chorus]
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing or two to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
[Chorus]
We all had delusions in our heads
We all had our minds made up for us
We had to believe in something
So we did
[Chorus]
We all had our reasons to be there
We all had a thing to learn
We all needed something to cling to
So we did
[Outro]
So we did
So we did
