My Latest Sin

Just like a distant thunder

My conscience is rolling in the back of my head

But your lips keep riding on in the darkness

Our guns on the floor

Near the makeup and the clothes that we shed

We both trail our own paths

But the grass has worn out our parting ways

And I used to think I rode with the devil

But I'm left on my own

Even he hasn't shown up these days

Don't cry my latest sin

I don't buy that (self) righteous being

Calm your worried soul

The demons and angels left us here all alone

Much like crickets at the sunrise

My guilt is fading in the depth of my chest

Your empire is brought down around us

But we're pressed on the wall

And don't care 'bout the fall of the rest

I pray you find your old path

But mine was lost so long ago

They say old roads were built on old rivers

Maybe that's why I'm lost

Cause I can't carry on with the flow

Don't cry my latest sin

I don't buy that (self) righteous being

Calm your worried soul

The demons and angels left us here all alone
