Defeater - Remorse lyrics
[Defeater - Remorse lyrics]
The days since we last spoke turned
To weeks, turned to months, turned to years
You were heavy with child with your
Arms around a stranger in fear
I had the burn in my blood, I
Had the ash in my veins
Had the lies I keep hid between teeth
The boy must never know about me, never
Know of my face Between us
Hold these secrets we keep
My penance, in your name
Hail Mary, have mercy
I dread the loss of heaven, living in hell
Forgive me my Father, for I am a sinner
Rain taps on the window
Burning red neon sign pushes it's
Way through the blinds
Sleep never comes easy sinking guts
Lacking faith and on the nod every night
Dim glow of the street lights
Forgotten tenement for the damned
No cut of the cloth here
Just another broken man waiting
Praying for death my penance in your name
My penance in your name
Hail Mary, have mercy
I dread the loss of heaven, living in hell
Forgive me my Father, for I am a sinner
To weeks, turned to months, turned to years
You were heavy with child with your
Arms around a stranger in fear
I had the burn in my blood, I
Had the ash in my veins
Had the lies I keep hid between teeth
The boy must never know about me, never
Know of my face Between us
Hold these secrets we keep
My penance, in your name
Hail Mary, have mercy
I dread the loss of heaven, living in hell
Forgive me my Father, for I am a sinner
Rain taps on the window
Burning red neon sign pushes it's
Way through the blinds
Sleep never comes easy sinking guts
Lacking faith and on the nod every night
Dim glow of the street lights
Forgotten tenement for the damned
No cut of the cloth here
Just another broken man waiting
Praying for death my penance in your name
My penance in your name
Hail Mary, have mercy
I dread the loss of heaven, living in hell
Forgive me my Father, for I am a sinner
