Sin of Pity

Burning tonight
Don't know what to do
I pray that some sweet zephyr takes this prayer to you
Feel so alone in this relentless rain
I want to hear your voice
Want to touch you again
I know your conscience haunts you
But I want you

It's a sin of pity
It's love that you betray
It's a sin of pity
And you've got penance to pay
Why do you make it last?
Kill it now, kill it fast
Cry, cry baby, for this sin

Tell ourselves it's just a lie
We'd love to believe it
But it would not die
You say you're bound by promises, bound by stealth
Untie yourself
I know it's now or never
We should be together

It's a sin of pity
It's love that you betray
It's a sin of pity
And you've got penance to pay
Why do you make it last?
Kill it now, kill it fast
Cry, cry baby, for this sin

It's not him that you love
You realise
The reflection of yourself in his eyes
Tell me that you're waiting for the sky to fall
Love makes fools and princes of us all
I know your conscience haunts you
But I want you

It's a sin of pity
It's love that you betray
It's a sin of pity
And you've got penance to pay
Why do you make it last?
Kill it now, kill it fast
Cry, cry baby, for this sin

It's a sin
