Take The Sin
Deitiphobia

Words and Music by Deitiphobia


I'll do it again, take the sin
Take the nails in my hands
Bear the hate, it's not too late
But it will be soon

Every day I kiss the clay
Every night I turn and say to You
"I'll do better when the sun comes up"
Every time I hear you say,
"Every breath you take today is authored by Myself
I am the Lord you neglect to glorify"

"Why do you keep messing with My love?
Why do you abuse what I've sent you from above?
Why do you lie when you talk to Me
And not even know, why did I die?
Do you know?"

And I'm sitting here, numb and choking
My heart is sinking and my head is joking
That I've got time on my hands
And I look and I see only blood

I've got to do it this time
I've got to do it this time

I'll do it again, take the sin
Take the nails in my hands
Bear the hate, it's not too late
But it will be soon

And I'm sitting here, numb and choking
My heart is sinking and my head is joking
That I've got time on my hands
And I look and I see only blood

You'll have to stand back a little 'cause I'm going up quick
The time it took for me to figure it all out makes me sick
There is a mandate
Forgiveness or reprobate
The one who chokes his servant has got hell to pay
I can't seem to do it
God, you see right through it
I know today is the day
Christ, I don't wanna sin no more
I'm tired of knocking at the door of righteousness
When it's only me who can't feel eternity
I want to shatter this stuff
Mouthing off just ain't enough
Do you have to die again for me to give up this sin?

And you always said you loved me and I shivered like a little boy
And now I'm realizing it was true
