Songtext von The Sin And The Sentence

I heard the passing bells calling out my name I knew I'd never see another day I couldn't swim against the tides of blame I knew there was no other way You better practice your lines You better practice your words I know that real monsters lie Between the light and the shade It doesn't matter what you say or feel When honest men become deranged They'll genuflect to a lie The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire (To a lie) The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat (They'll genuflect to a lie) The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire (To a lie) The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat (They'll genuflect to a lie) I saw the dagger eyes staring back at me I knew I'd never have a chance to bleed Guilty, but in the sight of fallen men They bury you before you speak You better practice your lines You better practice your words I know that real monsters lie Between the light and the shade It doesn't matter what you say or feel When honest men become deranged They'll genuflect to a lie The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire (To a lie) The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat (They'll genuflect to a lie) The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire (To a lie) The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat (They'll genuflect to a lie) Beware those who speak in tongues For they may call your name You condemn me 'Cause you don't understand me You condemn me 'Cause you don't understand me (They'll genuflect to a lie) The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire (To a lie) The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat (They'll genuflect to a lie) The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire (To a lie) The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat (They'll genuflect to a lie) Beware those who speak in tongues For they may call your name You condemn me 'Cause you don't understand me You condemn me 'Cause you don't understand me You condemn me 'Cause you don't understand me You condemn me 'Cause you don't understand me Fuck The sin and the sentence Penance in the fire The sin and the sentence The flames grip your throat
