Religion
Bif Naked Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Suck my mouth.
Suck my pain away.
Helplessness,
I am hard to stain.
Potentially inappropriate

I am naked,
Before you.
Look at me.
You came for me.
I pray to you.
You are in me

You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm loving you.
You're loving me.
You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm touching you.
You're touching me

Intoxicated with your breath.
My eyes close,
I am a mess.
Starving and cold and I need your love

You keep me real.
You lift me up.
Prayer soft,
I am in love.
Devotee of your immortal love.

Brutal truth.
It is profound.
Can you hear the sound,
Of my breath?

You are my religion.
You are my religion.
I'm loving you.
You're loving me.
You are my religion.
You are my religion.




I'm touching you.
You're touching me.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bif Naked's song "Religion" are intense and emotional, portraying a sense of vulnerability and need for someone to take away pain and provide comfort. The lines "Suck my mouth, suck my pain away" suggest that the singer is seeking relief from their suffering, and feels helpless in their attempts to do so themselves. Despite the potentially inappropriate connotation of the phrase "suck my mouth", it can be interpreted as a desperate plea for someone to help them alleviate their pain.


The second verse is equally poignant, expressing a sense of nudity and exposure before the chosen person, who the singer sees as a god-like figure. The repetition of the phrase "You are my religion" reinforces the idea that this person has become a kind of deity in the singer's life, providing emotional sustenance and love. The imagery of being "intoxicated with your breath" further emphasizes the singer's need for this person, as they are described as being "starving and cold" and needing love.


The chorus repeats the idea that this person is the singer's religion, and that their love is reciprocal. The bridge brings in the concept of truth, suggesting that the love between the two is not only powerful, but also genuine and real. Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of a person who is desperately seeking comfort and love, and has found it in another person who they see as a higher power.
