Time and time again; sin after sin after sin.
Time and time again; repent, repent, repent.
Nothing ever changes because you refuse to peer within.
I always expected more, but with you, I will never be content.
He planted a seed and watched it sprout.
But you have forsaken Him; just wait until there’s drought.
Pouring into all endlessly, my love too, never exhausts.

Seeking for the balance in it all
Measuring our hearts against the weight of another’s failure

Adam knew that he was cheating
when he saw what he was eating.
"What a pity," he said, "now man is disgraced.
But my oh my what pleasant taste."
I slept beside the devil
her wax flesh melted into mine
the air was rust, long dried blood,
the air was fine red wine,
she was a god in her own right
a transgression divine.
desperation, our preservation,
etched into my skin
prayer marks, satanic symbols,

There is a beast,
that lives within.
In every man,
promotes a sin.
You hear his whisper,

Inside your brain.
