Saint For A Sinner
So you are a sinner, guess I am a saint
Lying in the gutter with the L word on my face
Guilty pleasure of a man in pain
Have you heard of happy endings?
Doesn't seem that way
There's another chance here
It's written in the sand
Can you be the man that once I thought I had?
But who are you? Pray for a female god
If that's something you're expecting
That's something I'm not
Who are you to stand and judge me?
You're the one who's meant to love me
Not for who I'm not
But you can't see
All the harm you're causing here
You're adding salt into the wounds
And clearly you can't stop
I can't be a saint for a sinner
Can't pretend to not be me
I'm not here to be a pedestal winner
And if that's something you can't see
Then set me free
It is so ironic how you're meant to be
Perfectly angelic but a devil just to me
Don't just stand there preaching over me
Honesty was given only for a fee
So you stand there on your altar
Are you the man you think you ought to
be so perfectly?
Cause I can't see
All the goodness that I once saw
All the love I had
Entranced, you were a God to me
I can't be a saint for a sinner
Can't pretend to not be me
I'm not here to be a pedestal winner
And if that's something you can't see
Then set me free
I can't be a saint for a sinner
I won't be a pedestal winner
No, no, no..
Can't you see?
I can't be a saint for a sinner
Can't pretend to not be me
I'm not here to be a pedestal winner
And if that's something you can't see
I can't be a saint for a sinner
Can't pretend to not be me
I'm not here to be a pedestal winner
And if that's something you can't see
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free
