Pious Proud

And i wish i knew

Right from wrong

Instead of puttin' it

In all these songs

And each time i drown

My sorrow and drink

It isn't of your face

That i think

Well i'm on a road

To heavens gate

And i know i made

My own fate

And i'm please saint peter

Yeah, have mercy on me

Chorus:

And you know i tried

But i could not be true

And everything i have

I've given it to you

And i know it's wrong

It's such a waste

And i should have taken

The narrow and straight

Well i could have been

Sent from above

If i only had

Someone like made of love

And thinking

Please saint peter

Yeah have mercy on me

If you will, be pious proud

If you will i won't cry out loud

(chorus)

Well i'm on a road

To heavens gate

And i know i made

My own, fate

And i'm beggin'

Please saint peter

Have mercy on me
