Believe it only as my rival
What I know about your idol
I'm not the saint you've been hoping for
I'm not the blessing at your door
You were kicking in your sleep
Breathing thin and gasping deep
I admit I wasn't thinking how
How you're feeling now
Well it's not my first mistake
I'm the sinner
I'm the sinner now
And it won't be my last mistake
I'm the sinner
I'm the sinner now
I knew it was just a game
I stayed in it just the same
Written on my body
If in my eyes it's hid
But I know exactly what I did
And there's bad in the best of us
There's good in the rest of us
I can't take my eyes off you
But I can still be free
Even if there's no forgiving me
And it's not my first mistake
I'm the sinner
I'm the sinner now
And it won't be my last mistake
I'm the sinner
I'm the sinner now
Under these airless, aching skies
You can only touch them with your eyes
But on the ground you will throw your seed
Roses turn wild in the weeds
