If This Is Sin

On my knees in the dark of night

I offered up my tear soaked pleas
For someone to save me from myself
For I had killed the angel on my shoulder

In the light of day I lost my way
And that is when you found me
If somehow you could take this pain away
I would listen to my demons

If this is sin, I want to bathe in it
Pour the brimstone over my body
If this is sin, I'll follow you to hell
It won't be my first dance with the devil

I find in your eyes a reflection of me
My past is not there, just my future
I can see my dreams ripen like fruit
These are the things I can never tell you

I don't care anymore if I'm wrong
My name on your lips is the arrow that slayed me
I'm reborn in your every single touch
Nothing can ever mar these moments

If this is sin, I want to bathe in it
Pour the brimstone over my body
If this is sin, I'll follow you to hell
It won't be my first dance with the devil

One day, you'll see what I really am
You will run like everyone else ran
I've already forgiven the hatred you'll give
You sang a song to my soul that I'll still have

I'll shut out the critics and cynics
Who said no one would ever love me
I have right now and that's proof enough
Now they can't have my forgiveness

If this is sin, I want to bathe in it
Pour the brimstone over my body
If this is sin, I'll follow you to hell
It won't be my first dance with the devil
