We Are What We Were

I let my lover in, so we can somewhat sin
Oh it makes us shine brighter
And as I touch her hand, I've cause to understand
That this could only make us lighter

We are what we were
And we shine like we shone

And in this paradise, we banish God and Christ
And pray to something somewhat surer
We bit the hand that fed, and so the wealthy fled
That left us somewhat poorer

We are what we were
And we shine like we shone

I let my lover in, so we can somewhat sin
Oh it makes us shine brighter
And as I touch her hand, I've cause to understand
That this could only make us lighter

We are what we were
And we shine like we shone

And in this paradise, we banish God and Christ
And pray to something somewhat surer
We bit the hand that fed, and so the wealthy fled
That left us somewhat poorer

We are what we were
And we shine like we shone

We are what we were
And we shine like we shone
