The Scarlet Letter

10am and I'm sitting in a pew
Right here next to you
Resentful as you cry and shed a tear
As the preacher spreads his fear
She wears a scarlet letter on her chest
Embarrassed by the truth
Scared to post a selfie with her sin
Because they'll know the truth

So hide me baby
And tell them it's just not that serious
I mean nothing to you now
I just want to run from this nightmare that I am in
I am tired of being reminded of all my sins
You are ashamed of me
You are ashamed of me

So hide me baby and tell them it's just not that serious
This is all a game to you but it's not a game for me
I am setting myself free, lord forgive me

She wears a scarlet letter on her chest
Embarrassed by the truth
Scared to post a selfie with her sin
Because they'll know the truth

I walk the line of an adulterer
She walks the line of a murderer
She's a demon in a dress disguised as a holy broken mess
I said she's a demon in a dress disguised as a holy broken mess

She wears a scarlet letter on her chest
You are ashamed of me
She wears a scarlet letter on her chest
You wear a scarlet letter on your chest
That life is not for me
You have nobody to blame but yourself
So practice what you preach
