"Take Me to Church" by Hozier Lyrics Meaning
The songwriter Andrew Hozier-Byrne is singing against church-fueled "shaming." Specifically, this
song is against homophobia; the music video shows a gay couple being hunted and tortured by
mask-wearing men.
"The Meaning"
Hozier begins by singing about an imaginary girlfriend who "giggles at a funeral," and who "knows
everybody's disapproval." He regrets not having "worshipped her sooner." Hozier is strongly
attracted to this woman, whomever she is.
In the next stanza, he claims that "[i]f the heavens ever did speak / she's the last true
mouthpiece." He believes that if God exists, He would speak through this woman. And compared to
her, he believes church to be a "bleak" place, that spits out "poison" at those who attend,
telling them that they were "born sick" in sin. This girl is more desirable than church and, he
thinks, a better way to understand the meaning of life.
In the next stanza, Hozier sings that his girlfriend invites him to "worship in the bedroom" and
that he's sent to Heaven when he's with her. The main point of this song is that Hozier feels
closer to God (or the "good life" or "right living") in the act of love in sex, not when he
adheres to established religion.

Except it really isn't, the only reference to faggotry is in the music video which was developed
well after the song was written.

I was just thinking about this the other day when this song came on the radio while I was driving.
There are almost as many interpretations of a song as there are people. There's a correlation
with how often psychotics claim they've heard a song or seen a program that was speaking directly
to them.
I really couldn't care less either way as I don't even care for it.
