Sinner’s Lament

Walkin' all my sins away
Chase my demons in my head
Country mud at my heels
But no further from the edge

Heaven's river calls to me
So I wander out the door
A sinner's maskin' out a grin
And the thirst for somethin' more

Forsaken and taken my mind is afraid
Body is twisted and bent
A saint or an outlaw, I just couldn't say
Life with a sinner's lament

Rest up weary, tired eyes
I face the local stare
Where I been, and where I'm from
All burdens I must bear

The Devil started as an angel
Oh, the saint was once a rogue
Now the world is on my side
As the footsteps meet the road

Forsaken and taken my mind is afraid
Body is twisted and bent
A saint or an outlaw, I just couldn't say
Life with a sinner's lament

Beneath the rim, I travel deep
And look into the face
Broken vows, a consequence
Whisper sweet disgrace

Empty sky, darken road
I feel the cold winds by
I think about those days of old
I scream into the night!

Forsaken and taken my mind is afraid
Body is twisted and bent
A saint or an outlaw, I just couldn't say
Life with a sinner's lament
