Sinner´s Songbook

Have you ever walked through hell

And there was no one you could tell

To help you through it all

When all else seemed to fail?

Why can’t we be honest

About our struggles and our pains

The skeletons we dance with

Our secrets buried in their graves?

We all fight against the grain,

All of us circling the drain,

Villainous, voodooed, star-crossed fools,

All of us equal in our pain.

We count our scars,

In any weather,

We are brothers, we are sisters,

Now let’s sing together.

Sinner’s are the new holy

Before the throne I stand

Righteous by the blood only

And that means that you don’t

Got to live phony

Pretending that your fine smelling

While you die slowly

At the same time a righteous and a sinful man

That’s what I am

While I’m living this life span

I’m defeated and that was my last stand

No matter, man, I’ll grab my songbook

And I’ll sing it with the whole fam

And we stand side by side

Smiles on our faces with our broken lives

How would that look?

Everyone singing from the same sinner’s songbook?

And we’ll stand hand in hand

Grateful for the mercy that we can’t understand

But loving the freedom

That we get from the same sinner’s songbook!
