Confess

My friend well he walked me down

These roads I've never known

The salvation of my soul

Myself the only goal

There were pleasures I thought I'd seen

And some I never knew

There were people dressed in rainments

Of an uncertain hue

And the chances I thought I'd had

Many I'd missed

There were devils bearing gifts

And angels on the piss

(Chorus)

For my sins I will confess

And I will never lie

There's nobody that was ever here

That's never wondered why

And I've lived my life the best

Every second to defy

Will nobody that was ever here

Grieve me when I die

On the first day I met myself

Coming back from the third

I believed in what I was doing

I swallowed every word

Every word that I was told

By the great and the good

I bit the poisoned apple

Cos I felt that I should

Chorus

And now that I come to it

I can't recall

What it was I achieved

Just before my fall

I saw visions of ugliness

I visited shame

But I know should I come to it

I'd do it all again

Chorus
