Closing early morning
just before sunrise
A night spent with the guilt
Until morning light
We share a cigarette
burning the shame
Our lungs heavy in bliss
Our arms are sore
from the weight
I may be a sinner
forsaken and damned
The selfish and pride
for the touch of her hand
Our lips speak in secrets
Our tongues lie in verse
Our hearts slower the guilt
Our love our only recourse
And we share a cigarette
burning the shame
Our lungs heavy in bliss
Our arms are sore from the weight
I may be a sinner
forsaken and damned
The selfish and pride
for the touch of her hand
And I'll hold you close
with the ebb and flow
While the tides may turn we won't
And I'll hold you tight
like an anchor line
Through the gruelling seas at night
And I'll hold you close
with the ebb and flow
While the tides may turn we won't
And I hold you tight
like an anchor line
Through the gruelling seas at night
We share a cigarette
burning the shame
Our lungs heavy in bliss
Our arms are sore from the weight
I may be a sinner
forsaken and damned
Selfish and pride
for the touch of her hand
