Lyrics
[Intro]
Don't bless me, Father, for I have sinned
[Verse 1]
Father, did you miss me?
I've been locked up a while
I got caught for what I did
But took it all in style
Laid to rest all my confessions
I gave way back when
But now I'm versed in so much worse
So I am back again
And he said...
[Chorus]
For the lines that I take, I'm going to hell
For the love that I make, I'm going to hell
Getting heavy with the devil, you can hear the wedding bells
[Verse 2]
Father, did you miss me?
Don't ask me where I've been
You know, I know, yes, I've been told
I redefine a sin
I don't know what's driving me
To put this in my head
Maybe I wish I could die
Maybe I am dead
And he said...
[Chorus]
For the laughs that I fake, I'm going to hell
For the vows that I break, I'm going to hell
For the ways that I hurt while I'm hiking up my skirt
I am sitting on a throne while they're buried in the dirt
For the man that I hate, I'm going to hell
Getting heavy with the devil, you can hear the wedding bells
[Bridge]
Please forgive me, Father
I didn't mean to bother you
The devil's in me, Father
He's inside of everything I do
[Chorus]
For the lives that I take, I'm going to hell
For the laws that I break, I'm going to hell
For the love that I hate, I'm going to hell
For the lies that I make, I'm going to hell
For the way I condescend and never lend a hand
My arrogance is making this head buried in the sand
For the souls I forsake, I'm going to hell
[Outro]
Married to the devil, you can hear the wedding bells
