Sinner
I say sorry as I feel the best I've ever felt
Moaning my apologies into the hand of a man that I know will never hold me with any tenderness
Willing forgiveness from a God who will never grant it
Hoping that someday, in the arms of someone else
I can find some small semblance of purity
I do my hoping silently
among all the noise and the sweat and the filth I've brought upon myself
I take what I can get
Maybe I'll even learn to want it someday
