SIN
-----------------------------
A twilight hour dwells upon us
I look around and smirk
Answers seldom find us
But that's okay

This burden I have caused
The monster we have loosed
Rampaging through the skies
Quickly, tie my noose
Death escapes their blackened cries

To this pain you've claimed immune
You twist and plot, create a plan
A shapely crier death's commune
Breathe it deep and take it in
Careful now to hold your ground
Vision hazy, whirling sin
Close your eyes; it's so profound
The answer you seek comes to you

So to you all I play the fool
A nameless toy you bend and break
I'm suffering and they're so cruel
Empty promises you always make
I'm afraid, I've hit the end
I'm okay, content within
Speak to me, you condescend
All my sin I can't rescind

So take me, use me, drop me
Shake me, rape me, drain me
I close my eyes it's all the same
No one here to take the blame
Hate me, curse me, you conspire
Fool me; lies to which transpire

My dirty hands can't carry you
My spirit ripped and stained
My face may smile and my lips may promise
But my heart is still a fool
So forgive me if I distance you
While I fight these things within
I can't succumb this can't be so untrue
Yet I'm still buried in my sin
